HE qualities which especially distinguished Professor Wriglit were his fair-mindedness, his modesty, and his devotion to duty. He dif- fered from most scientists in that he added to his scientific training, not only a liberal, for the most part unscientific, college training, but also a full theological courseg as he differed from most theologians in adding to his theological training a thorough discipline in scientific research and a complete absorption of the scientific temper. This broad and varied culture co-operated with what was, doubtless, a strong natural bent toward cautious and thorough investigation, toward reserve and deliberation of judgment, and toward a horror of snap,' judg- ments and partisan misrepresentation and bigotry, to make him the sane, moderate, wise counsellor we have known. His modesty led him to shrink from all public appearances which were not absolutely required by his sense of dutyg to refrain altogether from any thing like boasting or self-assertiong to let his writing and his teaching stand upon their own merits, with no support from large claims to authority or to special attainments. This quality, it seems clear, limited his influence somewhat in the number of students who really came to know and appre- ciate the mang but it certainly made his power all the greater over his asso- ciates in the Faculty, and over those students Cand their number was by no means smalli, who studied with this thoughtful, earnest, devoted, broad- minded teacher, till they caught ,something of his ardent love for truth and his patient search for it. Yet this modesty was connected with a dogged persistency, when he had made up his mind that a certain thing ought to be done or secured, that rarely failed to accomplish its purpose. Perhaps even more impressive was Professor VVright's devotion to duty. He never spared himself in his teaching. His labors for the College cost him many hours of work in evenings and vacations. Yet he never re- fused calls for a wider service. He was perhaps the most laborious com- mitteeman in the Faculty. He has probably given more time and thought to the needs of the village than any other member of the Faculty. Until his health seriously failed, he was a faithful and regular teacher in the Sun- day school. His life was a great inspiration to fidelity to a host of grateful pupils and to all who labored with him in the Faculty and the church, 15 WILLIAM BROWN BEDORTHA BYOWII Btdortba. l854'l904. ARLY in the school year there died, quietly, as he had lived his life, the Attorney of the College. To many students, the public honor accorded his death by the College was the first intimation of his connection with the institution. The very success with which he filled his office, his skilful avoidance of litigation and the noise of law courts, kept him in personal obscurity, and like the greater forces of nature, he did his work unseen and unheard. .lt was among the officers of the College and the people of the town that his force and character had been most felt, and there, too, his loss fell most heavily. I-Ie was a modest man, but he knew very surely what he knew and his quiet self-confidence was convincing. No trouble was too trivial for his attention, no burden was too heavy to be laid confidently in his hands and left there. 1 VVorried men and women went to him for comfort as naturally as the sick to the family doctor-or as frightened peasants to the village cure. To his children he left a legacy of affectionate service from those of us who cannot pay otherwise our indebtedness, and a fine sweet standard to live by, and a much loved name. 17 PRESIDENT KING V aw ' Q X9-w N f :fa dw W I ,-1'5 vs- N -. 1 fi Q.. 7 1 Sx iz' f YN .

OW whan that Syr Traveller goeth about the Court of the good King Henry, he seeth eftsoon eertayn lordings going about which be right old and wise. And they ben mounted upon blacke chargers, and have dead-blacke armour, and gowns eke of sorrie blackc. Their formes ben not right fat, 81 their faces alsoc ben mervellous thin and wore awayg the whiche, soe have I hearde, is by reason of their moche lernyng and their devocioun to Syr Aristotle and Syr Symon Fraser MacLennan their philosophic. Soe fulle of lernyng ben they that no man ne may not make them merrie, but they live in fastyng and almes decles and prayeres to the Facultie for a job nexte yeare. It is alsoc sayd how that they toyl fulle harde by daye 8z eke by night that they maye be cleped Gloria Facultatis, the whiche, when it is seyd in our own tonge, meneth Pryde of yon Facultie fgl these ben grete lordings whiche rule alle the knyghtes in this court and ben abhominable scolemaistersj. Soe moste needes these blacke knyghtes fight fulle griev- ously ageynst the wyles of the Flesche, of the Evile One, and eke of the Natural Man. And these ilke knyghts and ladyes whereof I speke ben fulle long in the land, soe that they highten' Senyors, for that their hairs ben few and greye, as ye may see eche one of you if ye wille lookc upon Syr Dicke and Syr Harris. And these knyghtes and women alsoe-the whiche ben verilie 22 Amazones and mervellous strong at joust,-have fought manye fel batteyles, and the German and the French and the Englysshe have they overcome, that is to seye, for the moste part, though some weren left upon the held and some weren sore wounded, that they must salve them with soft salves y-clept Omega Oil 8x Softe Snappes eke. Now whan these Snappes ben laid upon the wounded part, I sey you trewelie, that one that was wounded lepeth Sz hathe no moe pain in his membre. Soe now ben they alle safe 8: heartie, as ye may see if ye loke upon their faces' alle- comelie and fayre. Now the moste part of their dedes ben in the pastg in these dayes ben they too old Sz weke to fight, and they love not nothing but to spelce con- cernyng those jousts and tourneys the whiche they did when they were y011gC. And it befel upon a daye that these olde knyghtes and their deir ladyes comen togider in the evening time,-King Ellis, 81 eke the Dyrtie Dozene C the whiche ye shall soon hear ofj and Syr Knyght Patterson and ilke oon of them, and boasted concernyng those dedes whiche they did aforetime. And Syr Knyght Patterson fthe whiche ye may knowe for his manye wordes, and for that he falleth on slumberyng, not sleping nor thoroughly wakingj, jangled moche. And they alle minded them of that fel night when they would gain favour from the Godesg wherefore they gat them a godely I-Ien, but I know not wheder they purchaced her from Syr George Pay or haven taken hit from a coope. But I say you that they gat them that aboveseyd Hen Sz layed her upon an awtre faltarl, soe that she brenned. But wheder the Godes ben appesed I can not no way say, for these folk ben fearsome sinful. And they remembered alsoe the blythe dayes of the Dyrtie Dozene. These be certayne terrible strong knyghtes, the whiche fought togider al- ways in those olde dayes, 81 slew alle other men, save but onlie the Facultie. And ye may knowe them for that their nether parties ben alle covered with a dire garment of a straunge devising. And one of them beth soe wonder long that Syr Traveller loketh upon him with wonder and cryeth untoe him, Lorde, Lorde, ne wille he not nevir cease from goeing upwards? These ben verilie straunge and faymous knyghtcs, but in these times ben they some deal scattered and not so dread as long agoe they ben. And while that they spoke concernyng these matteres, alle they that were at that partie wepte 8: shrieked, for that they weren too olde and hoare for the brayve hatteyls. XVllC1'Cl'Ol'C was this a fullc grievous partieg and whan that it was nine of the cloclce, soe sayd eche of hem Alas thys un- happie daye, and soe rode forth from that partie. ' And now wille I lcve these blaclce knyghtes and ladyes. But the daye cometh when they shall goe abroad and 'walk by the fieldes and medowes, alle mannere of doctours of Philosophie., And they ben alle well grounded in true and parfit dedes and eke in the lyves of the saintesg wherefore can noe harm come to them, and we wille turne from them for alwey.

N the Gerst-monath, that is to seyn, barley Monath, of the yeer 1902, those illce knyghtes whiche now ben eleped juniors, banded them togiderg and many peple cwom from distant londes to joyn this Round Table. And when they hadde alle come togider, they chose a leader and resolved that though the journey might wel be ClZILl1lgC1'Ol1S,. thei wolde set them in serche of a far countree, concernyng' whose fayme they hadde herde many wordes. A And tirste they comen to a londe whiche was fresche and grencg and they entered therein with grete cagernesse. But wyt ye wclle, that grene- nesse sholde be distrustd for oft it coverethe periles, suche as gret swampes and myresg and a man may not see them on account thereof. 'Soc these knyghtes had mony sore hardshippes that firste yeerg but at the laste, alle those drede monstres whiche had opposed their journee weren joyfully overcomeg and they passed over intoe the nexte eontree. ' Here ben they more fulle of craft, for they had lerned moche aftre their gret batteyles. And ageynst neboryng peples wonne they mighte victories in the warfare of those kyndes the whiche men clepen basket balle, base balle and skatynge. In other mannere alsoe they cwom to ben loved by the rulinge sprites of that contrce, that is to sey, the Facultie, whereof ye have hercle mony grievous thinges. The thridde yeer they entered them the lond of Junior, by whiche name they ben ylcleptg and they find it to he a fulle plaisaunt londe. One monstre there was who wolde not lette them passe byg and they foughte with hit longe and ofte. This monstre was ryghtelie hight Philosophie,', but it apperethe in diverse formes to terrifye the folkeg the one beth cleped Psychology, the whiche is the maist dredefule. But they escaped mony periles of that londe for that their leader was in verie trewthe gode and gret Sz toke moche thoughte for their welfare 81 joye. And it befel that in the falle tyme of that ycere, and the wyntre eke, 2 armies withe diverse kyndes of balles wcren sent forthe to fighte ageynst their foo. And they fought, hut allbe that they ne wonne not no gretc batteyles, they returned them as many as sette out, that is to sey, none were slaughtered and left dede upon the tieldes, the whiche gretely rejoiced those other knyghtes and moste of alle, the women, who, so have I herde, hen all ways fonde of warriores. 64 But I seye you trewelie, the drede purpose of alle these ilke knyghtes ben nought elles but this, namelie, to have a ryghte gode time wlnle that they dwelte by this godelie courtg and for this ende, these knyghtes and their fayre ladyes mete ofte at parties fthat is, parties ben gatherynges where a man forgettethe his cayres by as moche as he actethe foolishlie and getteth him gode thynffes to eatej. And alle they peple agreede togider that this S was the moste plesaunt contree the which they hadde yet come tog some even lovede hit soe wel that their friends feered them that thei wolde remayne , . . I there when that the other knyghtes and else the1r ladyes, fthe wlne ie, it is seyd in the Review by thet drede knyghte Syr Patterson, whereof I have spoke before, ben not soe serious and eke wise as hir lordesj weren jour- neyed forthe into another londe. ' Now these Junior knyghtes also dide a verie gret workg that is, they made them a bolce of benefit to alle who may reed therein. It teachethe monie thynges coneernyng' the sonne and the moone, andeke the starres, and seem him at table and beth well fulle of wyt and how ilke man sholde be wysdome, as alle ye knowe who have sen thereinne. And thoughe in yeeres tO come this ilke bolce may be sophistieate, that is to seyne, contrefeted, it can not nevir be equalled by no man. The lon-are and perilouse journey of Syr junioures beth almest over. vb Yet no more yeeres but one onlie and they will come to that far countree for the which they sette them longe agoe. Aftre their drede wanderinges wille they come untoe the Londe of Promise, the wlnche men calle the wide worlde And here wille ilke man goe forthe to finde his own weyeg Or it may be 2 wille fro togider that they may be lesse lonelie upon hir 'S journee. This eronyele hathe tolde lyttle eoncernynge the dedes of these verie grete and stout lcnyghtes, but if ye will knowe moe of them, I seye d you verilie that ilke oon of them wille gladlie boast to you yet more an telle untoe you monye dedes of glorie. pw ,dan all y S zfeflgfsg c 'v4'D 'ff-'SQA mi ' lf Zig! Vt- . , - Q GQ Q 4 W 65 Che Hdvemures of Sir junior in the Psvcbologv. GOODLY knight lay resting on the ground Gazing upon the beauteous plain of Electives When suddenly a monster dire appeared,- The one whom he above all others feared- Oft had it before pursued his way And allowed him quiet in no place to stay: Its name is Flunk from whom 'tis best to Hee, For such an one can never conquered be. lldlld of all around So, donning his armour, he spurred his steed, Shirk, And rode up the hill of Required Work. He entered a wood most dark and dim Where thickets obscured his way, And three strange men did he meet therein, Of whom the first did say: This is the wood of 'Signs of the Mind,' Wliere I and my brothers hold sway. Till you've conquered us all in a wrestling match, You cannot pursue your way? So the knight did fight with one and all And first laid Sensitiveness low, Then Docility fell with a feeble moan, And Mental Initiative beneath his blow. Straiglitway the dark did vanish quite, The brambles disappeared, And he rode to a c-ity bright Where he no danger feared. A curious people dwelt therein,- Aphasics by nameg So queer were they in their habits of life That they had acquired fame. The law that ruled in this curious land Was that no one by chance should understand What he heard or saw or felt: I 66 Who got ideas were deprived of motion, And in a statuesque condition were welcome to their notion Since they couldn't express it at all. Possessing ideas, the knight fled away, Though he afterwards doubted the need, For when it came to understanding what he had seen He knew the Aphasics would lead. Next he met two men on the road, And one was young and strong, The other was old, exceedingly old, And he limped as he went along. My name is 'Instinct,' the old man said, I was born when the race began, And the older I grow the greater the hold I lay on the life of each man. Nay, cried the other, my power is greater, For Mortals love me bestg I am young with their youth and accompany their life Till they go to their final rest. Instincts are formed when men are born, Habit comes with life: But where Instinct and Habit have to conflict Habit wins the strife. Fain would the knight have lingered here, But the monster, Flunk, pursued him, S0 he fled along in heedless haste And entered a cave most dim. The knight knew not that this was one entrance To the Hades known as a Test, But his courage soon left him, fear ruled in its stead, Though to cheer him his sword, Bluff, did its best. All the creatures that he had met, And all that he had slain, Among the tortures of that place The poor knight saw again. 67 In strange distorted shapes they danced Before his startled gaze, Then shrieking, mocking at his plight, Vanished into the haze. Leaving hope within that cave, The knight proceeded sadlyg He started now at all he saw His nerves were shaken badly. Now in that land there flows a river, Broad and swift and deep, Ry the fresh fields of wakefulncss And the borderlands of sleep. Upon this river the knight set out,-- An idea as a boat,- And down the Stream of Consciousness His bark did gently float. He saw Conception by the way, And Discrimination keen, And passing by he bravely sought To know what they might mean. The mysteries of Sight and Hearing He also tried to comprehend, Till they with Touch and Sense of Mot Vanishecl around a bend. But here, alas! the stream grew rougher, The waves his frail bark tossed, And mid the dangers of the rapids He feared he would be lost. The stream swept on to a lofty fallsg The knight went over the brink, ion And into the whirlpool of Test the Second He and his idea did sink. He reached the shore, no more I knowg His fate no man can see. But who can doubt that fame he'1l win In the Land of Psychology? 68 ev., BALDWIN COTTAGE Wil 4 'I 4. 4 0 ' B A 'S 1 V DEAN FITCH EWS' J- 5 :ask 'X K' Qs -11 gh' 9 I N ,gb E V bfxxi Vf 1 Q1-1, N-s LTM in I1 9' ' gf '-j,,.zg f lxvi- .?7,N5,..,- fwxffahffi' S A2-2' 5 .. 1 , 7' -1-r x .Ain MH x XHq:IfI!l fx rx uxvaf! xf H , f gr x I X 1 I K mic, Q L Q f I 1fII.'l!',:f,i1',y,'If 4.

ND the thridde classe of knyghtes whereof I shall speke ben called in the Greke tonge Sophomores, that is to seyn Wyse Fooles, but they ben maist commonly known as Sophes, forwhy they ben verilie moste Wyse and not moche fooles. And they wear upon their bodies shirtes of greye, withe grete bowes y-tied of scarlat and shynyng fulle splendidly. Upon hir handes eke ben mightie gloves, and thy ben enchaunted soe that none maye wear them save onlie these Sophes. Now in hir past have they alle done manye fearsome cledes, and many of grcte vertue alsoe. Meke and humble ben they, as folk of little estate, the whiche may ye know for that many yeares agoe sondry from them gan forth upon a seyntly pilgrimage afar off nntoe the Orphan his Home, a place of moche resort for gode folk. And here did they moche to improve the estate of those miserable orphans soe that these Sophes ben trewlie loved of all they that dwell by the Orphan his Home. And when that they had consecrated them by these gode dedes, these ilke knyghtes have shown them atverie Cristen kynd of men and a noble ensample nntoe alle. And it befel that they feasted alle togider at a fulle fayre partie, with moche love and chivalrye. And even as they drank the wassaille, without any wyle I telle you, that certain creatures, I know not wheder they ben men or devils, cwom softely and laid foule sulphure upon the roaryng furnace, soe that there was a fulle dedlie odor, and that ne is not noe lye, but the verie trewthe. And now these gode Sophes ne sweared not, neether avenged them, but they sneezed fearesome and forgaf their enemies swetely. ' But aftre that certayn deyes weren past, they Wexed harde of herte and wolde ride them forthe upon hir stedes Sz slaye their foos. And I wille not say that they did no wronge when that they purchaced them a wonder fayre and broad pigge 81 with fulle ill intent toke they him, all grete and noisesome, intoe the seyntlie place of assembling. And upon Syr pigge ben sondry lewd payntyngs, the whiche made ireful these foos aboveseyd. Wl1erefo1'e they alle fought a fel batteyl there close by yon seyntlie place, concernyng' the sowndyng' and bellowing Syr Pigge. And Witt ye wel the preyeres and moche wepyng of alle them that stood by in horror, ne were not of no avayle ageynst the hete of that fyghtyng. And that was trewelie a sorrie daunce for seyd Syr Pigge. Now wille I sey nntoe you how that to labour ne seemeth unto these knyghtes not pleasant save onlie nntoe a Bone or two. They sey nntoe allehbokes of astrologie and other dire lernyng how that they have of lernyng a surfeit, and it may not avail but if they let their blocle and clense them of 74 that cold humor. Forwhy they fulle ofte do straunge dedes for to purge them of their hevinesse Sz eke oftetime remedie Syr Senyor who beth alwey weried by his moche studie and pleyn vertue. Byfel that on a fayre day, these Wyse knyghtes donned them their fayre armour, the whiche was formed aftre the manner of a grete apron, and beth that wherein they have done sore batteyl ageynst Syr Sophomore Chemistry. Now I seye you trewelie these had a mighte grete stenche soe that ilke man groaned depelie when that he beheld them. Verilie semed they right sorrie knyghtes on that daye 81 moche worn by lighting Sz hir armour was to clenenesse long unused and grctely filled with holes made by sharpe arrows and diverse drede and poysouned wepnes. Yea, quod I, they have fought fulle bravelie and done them their foos to dethe altogider and left them dede upon the fielde. Now wille I speke alsoe concernyng the godelie pompe and reverence the whiche they have accorded untoe that vertous Lording of moche welthe, to wit, Syr Andrew Carnegie. Ful fayre and fetisly arrayed in their grete gloves, whereof I have alredy seyd before, they marched togider with clanking armour, and shrieked them aloud and beat their handes fulle oft til that the duste arose, for they ben not righte clene knyghtes, so I undertake. And withal have they fought moche and bravelie, chefelie against the knyghtes of King Shedd, for the whiche unlerned hethen have they proved them a Wyse leader. In ilke weye ben they fulle glorious folke. Grete is their worthinesse by the joustes cleped baseball and eke footballe and eke basket balle and ilke other fighting Sz their prowesse is soe grete that alle togider seye the Sophomores ben most parfait gentil knyghtes. 75 TALCOTT HALL.

Now this is y-elept highead Sz eertes it is a foule vice in hem that hen yonge, the syn of bighead, lrVheref0re all men desired gretely to cast out this vile spirite, and for this purpose did moche batteyle ageynst them. And now shall I recount that firtste batteyle which was y-fought amonge these yonge lcnightes. Now it hefel that ahoven them alle was sett a youge lordinge, 81 that oon was ryght fayrc. His locks, shinyng yelow, were godc to loke upon and longe, and he hight Shedd. And he rode by nyght, and there met with him manye monstres Cthat is to seyn, a monstre is a thing difformed ageynst kynd, bothe of man or beast or of anything elles and that is cleped a monstrej. Then ben these beastes sett upon that gode Shedcl, and their wepnes were sheares and sharpe lcnyves, soc that thei wounded him sore upon his head. And whan his peple saw him on that nexte morning, trewely ne was there not hairs hut ten upon his head, and those not right grete. And he was verilie fearsome to loke upon. Tint is it not grounded expressly in Scripture that men may let shave their heads? Now witt ye wel, these yonge lcnyghtes of that gode Shedd, ne lovede not those knyghtes that were under Prince Leslie: in part for that said lcnyghtes might have amonge them eertayn of the hairs of Shedd. And it befel that those folk of Prince Leslie would holde a feastynge with manye fayre ladyes. And while that 'Ifrince Leslie gan forthe to meet his ladye, knaves from Shedd his companye fell upon him, crying that he moste goe with them. Then Prince Leslie quoth that he would not, but would goe to his ladye, the whiehe hight Doetour Fitchg but those other knaves answered him nought, and they bare him away, I cannot tell you whiehe way, for no man knoweth. The whiehe was a grete marveyle, Sz that ladye above-seyd ne wot where her Prince may be. 80 1 Now it was soe that the while the knyghtes of Prince Leslie were at the feastyng, mournyug for their comely Prince, yonge Shedd, his knyghtes and ladyes, feasted eke togider, boastyng Sz yelping. And as thei sate thus at their drynk certaynefrom Prince Leslie his men came with terrible step through the nyght and cursed those torches, the whiche made lighte that feast hall, soe that it was fulle dark. Then those knyghtes and laclyes togider cryed aloud 81 there was moche wrath among them, eke among those grete nobles that ben facultie y-elept. Now hereat wexed Henry the King wroth, soe that no man may speak concernyng these mysteres. And it was not ryght wel y-knowe if those knyghtes the whiche had done these evil decles might remayne by the pleasaunt court or must goe otherwhere into that outere derknesse. And alle men spake manye words until that their countenaunee wexed the colour of iyne purple. n And the subjects of Prince Leslie and eke many otheres in the court sett those knightes cruel laws, the whiche thei must folwe. And Shedd his men would not. And there befel a grete batteyle, mervellous fearsome, in that place which is y-clept Peters. And the one seized upon the hair of the other and would remove the same soe that there be no more. Nevir hath no Hercer batteyle wexen Sz ere that Syr Miller charged forth upon his stronge steed, fulle fyve fayre knyghtes lay upon that field. Then eke wexeth King Henry wroth alsoe that the yonge knyghts ben oppressed aftre this mannere. VVherefore now ben these lawes undone, soe that these yonge knyghtes ben fulle free and noble. I Now these knyghtes ben bolde at every tou1'ney. And ageynst that ye may desire to knowe hem, will I describe them unto you right plainly. And.chieiiy upon them beth a fulle glorious shirt of fyne red, the whiche is y-bound about the necke part with blackeg now these be not upon any other men but only them. Upon their heades eke sett thynges of blacke bearyng a red band, and upon their sleves alsoe beth that red and that blaeke. But mostely may ye wit when ye see them by cause thei ben soe yonge and soe fulle fayre to loke upon ageynst the sonne. 81 DEAN BOSWORTH 7 L, 1 fm x, K, 54-fl 'fgfgaz 7, ., , ,J . f' ' 1 QP 'f . iNk . f 7 in x r A 5, ,.

VVAKEIVIEIZD ROBERTS IRA JAY HOUSTON HARRY WARD STILLMAN 85 Ill PGCQ. N the evening of the year,i our souls cried out for peace. To her sacred walls, with many kindred spirits, we made our way. The top- , most spire of her ancient castle, which, bathed in the tints of the autumnal sun, pierced the mantle of the sky, rose high in air, and through the rent, heaven's dews of peace fell on all beneath. Day followed day in which the dwellers in this time-honored castle migrated in and out, knowing naught save peace, night followed night of unbroken slumbers of the just. Thus during many moons the easements rang forth their deep, reverberating tones of joy, into the ears of the dwellers by day, and by night wrapped them in the robe of quiet sleep, to be undis- turbed until break of new dawn. The hearts of these seekers of peace re- joiced exceedingly, for verily we are persuaded that the desired haven has been reached and the longsought oasis of the desert is to pour forth her refreshing waters unceasingly. Here we shall grow old together. But ere long on the stillness of a certain night, the corridors of this sanctuary echoed the note that woke the midnight sleepers to the con- sciousness that the first disturber of our peace had made his way into our nest. With the noise of a mighty earthquake, the thundering of roaring waters and cataracts, with the velocity of the whirlwind, there swept from corner to corner, from basement to attic, the turmoil of the shades of Hades. ' .Emerging from their secluded cells, clad in their white garments of peace, the inquiring monks rush forth in defense of their peace, only to be met with a thousand missiles, chairs, ladders, barrels and buckets of water on their devoted heads, hurled by the vile, unseen hands of the demons. Amid the uproar the pitiful wail of the monks rises from floor to floor. One devoted martyr shuts himself within his room in prayer for the degen- erate reprobates. The prayer availing nothing, as night after night the work of the fiends increases, this devotee of the cloister betakes himself to more hallowed precincts, with this injunction on his lips to the successor of his cell, I deliver up to you the keys of death and of hell. Driven at last hy necessity, as their cry echoed itself back to them, Peace, peace, but there is no peace, the monks hold solemn conclave with 86 ihe rinters, wherein they discuss what actually happened, and sue for home rule. Upon the wise f?j comments of Bar, Huck, VVOody and Tom, amid the deafening' outcry of monks and liends, both parties recognize each other not longer to be antagonists but friends. As of yorc, within these noble halls, peace and quiet reign supreme. Amen. S7 PROFESSOR MORRISON be CGIISQWGI l'V f mllSiC. FZICIIIIV. CHARLES W. NIORRISON, Director of the C onservatory. MRS.

NE morning Mr. Interested sat on the bank of the Advancement River watching, at his feet, the little ripples which played happily in the June sunshine. Suddenly he heard merry voices alternating with the plash of oars, and in the direction from which the sound came there appeared a large boat, filled with boys and girls. Upon its green prow, painted in gold letters, was the name, O. A. 'o5. He observed that each occupant wore a green cap and carried something white rolled up and tied with a ribbon. All these facts aroused his curiosity. By this time the boat was nearly opposite Mr. Interested, who stood up and called out, Hello, there! Who are you ? At this unexpected sound all eyes were turned toward the shore. A tall, broad-shouldered man rose from his place at the head of the boat and answered, We're from Academy Island. 104 The man on shore tried to stop the boat and make further inquiries, but all in vaing the O. A. '05 was being so rapidly propelled up the Advance- ment River that it was soon out of sight. A little chagrined, and more curious than before, Mr. Interested deter- mined to go to Academy Island and find out who these people were. In his canoe he paddled down the stream until he reached the island. He found it a flourishing place. The inhabitants were industriousg each hur- ried hither and thither, apparently with some definite work to do. Mr. Interested felt out of place among them. He turned back toward the shore determined to leave at once, but his plan changed when he saw a small boy on the shore, skipping stones. Mr. Interested approached him, saying in a cheery voice, I-Iello, Sonny. Fine day,.ehP You don't seem to be busy. Why didn't you go rowing with the crowd P Nope, I ain't busy. My exams are over, answered the boy, watching the ripples widen around a spot where a stone had sunk. Well, why didn't you go on that picnic, then P returned Mr. Interested. The boy carefully and skilfully sent his stone bounding over the water, and then, putting his hands in his pockets, he said, Chl That.wasn't no picnic. They were the Seniors! This island wa'n't big enough to hold 'em after they got their diplomas. So they were the 1905 graduates, were they Pi' Yepg they've all got diplomas. I s'pose you saw 'em all rolled up and tied with ribbon. Yes, I noticed that each one in that boat carried a white roll, said Mr. Interested. I suppose they were a fine class P he added interrogatively, hoping to draw the boy on. You bet they were l was the emphatic reply. I've heard the teachers praise 'em up sky high. They say some of 'em never failed to get a five. Very interesting, commented the man. And the boy continued, They have lots of fun, too. Did you see the crowd in the stern? Well, that was the social committee. They were hustlers, I tell you. All the parties they planned turned out tip-top. I peeked in the door once when they were havin' a dress-up affair and I was most scared stiff 'cause one of 'em was a regular Injun, and two or three others had pistols. My! They looked just like train robbers. They had other parties, too. I didn't go to 'en1, but I heard the fellows talkin', so I know they had good times. Say, exclaimed the boy, suddenly facing Mr. Interested. Did you see that man who sat in the front of the boat P Mr. Interested nodded in assent. , Well, he's their president. The fellows say he's a top-notcher, and I guess they know what they're talkin, about. They're a fine class all around. You ought to have heard what the man who talked to them at commence- ment said. I-Ie used such big words I didn't understand him, but they clapped a lot so it must have been good. But, say, what's your name P asked the boy. n But just then the bell rang for basket ballg the boy ran off without waiting for a reply and Mr. Interested stepped into his canoe and pulled up the river.

The first Middlers to have a coat-of-arms, our ranks honored by descendants of Lord Bacon, Ralph Waldo Emerson, William Bradford and Oliver Wendell Holmes, having pushed forward with untiring ambition the building of the beautiful new Peck I-Iallf, we demand far and wide, over bog, heath and green, respect and admiration. Our president, Mr. I-Ienclerson, a man self-possessed, modest and re- liable, filled his position with diplomacy. The treasurership has reached 1As an annuity for the building of Peck Hall the Middle Class was given the old brick from the tesselatecl ruins of French and Society. 106 its minimum. Evidently the responsibilities of the office were too enormous and Mr. Holmes and Mr. XVZIITCII we1'e both compelled to leave school un- der the strain? Guided by our rainbow, the superior knowledge of the class is espe- cially noticeable. n VVe must give full credit to Miss XfVilley and Miss Harrows for the existence and success of our parties, yet even they could do nothing when the ice melted under our skates. All of our parties were called lcid', par- ties but only one was. The boys were traitors hut Mr. Huntington went out with the girls to see the sap run.

T is held by common conception that an Oberlin literary society is an organization existing solely for the purpose of advancing and developing, in every possible manner, the literary tastes, inclinations, and abilities of its members. Substantially, this is true. It is hardly to be denied that development along the line of literary composition and public speaking does constitute the fundamental purpose for which a literary society is organized. And it was primarily for this purpose that Phi Delta- was foundedg and it is primarily for this purpose that she now moves and has her being. But we are thankful to say that old Phi Delia has not continued to be satisfied with this fundamental and ultimate aim, but has allowed an alto- gether ordinary and normal interest in herself as a literary society, to broaden and deepen into a real love, a love which cherishes and cares for old Phi Delta as something more than a literary society, a love which regards her and ever shall regard her as a sacred bond, holding men together by the tender leashes of fraternal interest,-a love which is deep and abiding. We of Phi Delta are proud of our society. We are proud of her first as a literary organization. We believe that the efforts of the mind and voice, to which the old hall oft re-echoes, will bear with ease the rareficd atmos- phere of that high plane which is the environment of the best work of the Oberlin literary societies. We are proud of her because we believe that those who have pledged their hearts and hands to her eternal welfare are men who will be worthy of her, to know whom we shall be proud, in the years to come. VVe are proud of our society because in the lists of compe- tition, her record has been an honorable one. She has won her share of the wreaths of laurel, and our hopes for the future are undimmed. But finally, we are proud of old Phi Dcltal first, last, and always because we love the association and fellowship for which she stands. And so, with love, loyalty, and devotion, let us raise once more the brimming glass and join in the immortal chorus- Phi Delta is to us All grand and glorious, Thus shall she be. 113 ROIIL of members.

To tell the accon1plisl1n1ents of a few men would be but prais- i11g individuals. To give advice for tl1e future or to prophesy its outcome would be but to give tl1e best wisl1es of the writer. But to say tl1at Plzi Kappa Pi l1as shown an increasing interest, l1as won signal victories, a11d is holding a place of 110 mean value, is but to set her forth in her rightful light. Starting tl1e year's work with ranks seriously depleted by the loss of several active members of IQO4, we remaining o11es found tl1at upon us devolved tl1e responsibility of living up to and even surpassing the standards theretofore raised by Phi' Kappa Pi. And tl1is duty has been admirably carried o11t, though in so doing tl1e assistance of our newer members has played no small part. To thc111 we owe much for tl1e true spirit in which they have entered upon their IICXV duties, and ourselves we congratulate upon the acquisition of such members as they have proved to be. Debate a11d oratory have especially llourished. In tl1e former, besides the high standard of work do11e in our weekly meetings and the inter- society contests, we have furnished an entire team for intercollegiate work, men wl1o showed persistency in eH'ort and perseverance in long and rigid training. Phi Kappa represents the college in oratory this year, and so deservi11g of credit is tl1e work of our orator that we have a right to desire a ranking i11 tl1at department. T110 reconstructed program, instituted at the beginning of this year, has not o11ly increased interest, but l1as wide11ed our experience and has given 11s a g'Cl1Cl'E1l knowledge of current eve11ts and greater ability in im- promptu speaking. Socially, we have deepened tl1e fraternal spirit, a11d l1ave come to look to a Phi Kapfna brother at tin1es outside tl1e halls of literary effort. This is a feeling tl1at ought to be imbibed and disseminated, it is tl1is spirit that produces the unity of effort that tells in society work, and means lUllCh after college work is done. So we may say with all l1onesty that this year l1as been a profitable one, and the earnest desire of society is tl1at next year may see the work taken up wl1ere it is 11ow, that the progress shall be as great as it has been this year, a11d that our place shall be unusually high. Let friendship and progressu express our ain1s, and let us' be per- sistent in attaining them. 117 EDWIN FAUVER, ,QQ 1. M. CLIFTON I. R. ELLIS W. EMERY A W. F. HARRIS T. M. DYE A. E. FISHER F. B.

SCORE and sixteen years ago, our predecessors brought forth in this college a new society, conceived in the spirit of unceasing and untiring energy, and dedicated to the principles of truth seeking. On the roll of this new society have been inscribed the names of many of old Oberlinls best sons, men since' become famous in the various vocations of this whirring, whirling, whooping civilization of ours. Mr. Bryan has told us that the best ideals are, by their very nature, unattainable. If this be true, the ideals of Alpha Zeta are matchless. These ideals are set forth in some detail in what may be termed the pre- amble of our constitution. Wiitli regard to the fifth, concerning the con- duct and bearing of the members, perhaps we sin most grievously. This is unquestionably due to no fault of the members themselves, but rather to the peculiar construction of our chairs which partake of the nature of that fashioned by good King Arthur's Merlin. On the whole the work of the past year has been excellent and varied. We have heard orators of the silver-tongued variety and of the quiet- talks-to-girls variety. Our essays have been worldwide in scope, and pro- found in depth. Our debaters have waxed warm and eloquent, discussing the old, yet ever new, subject of woman suffrage and others of unlike interest. In extemporaneous speeches we have kept abreast of the times. Our representatives secured first place in the junior Oratorical Contest, second in the Home Oratorical Contest, and by a tie have held the inter- society debate banner, which has hitherto flitted coquettishly from hall to hall. In intercollegiate debate, however, we failed to make good. VV e are not dead nor even sleeping. If there has been any decrease in our activity, it is merely the calm before the storm, the slight waver before the leap, a leap into the light rather than into the dark. We have cancelled our debt and the redecoration of our hall is progressing with rapidity equalled only by the progress of the new chapel. Our past is indelibly written upon the hearts and minds of our mem- bers: the future is gliding softly, silently, irretrievably into the pastg let the future be written in a bold, large hand: Alpha Zeta for education in public speaking and a good brotherly friendship! 121 L.

O enter upon a eulogy of that most excellent new society of young women who strain so zealously up toward the dizzy heights, Friend- ship and Truth and Progress, is, almost inevitably, to launch forth into the harrowing details of her early history. But these, though of undoubted interest as Well as the source of some pleasurable self-congratulation upon the part of those immediately concerned, we realize cannot be expected to thrill the unimpassioned and therefore somewhat cynical listener, with the same degree of awe and reverent amazement that we feel might reasonably fill the breast of the narrator. Now should this fitting sense of restraint be misconstrued as evidence of a deplorably pessimistic frame of mind, albeit keeping in mind the image of.that hard-worked illustration of the optimist, who, in the position of a man climbing out a well, cheerfully keeps his attention on the distance he has climbed, while the pessimist, also climbing out of a well, ever more has before him the distance he has yet to climb, such danger, though imminent, can be safely incurred, if only in the interest of novelty, so prone are institutions as institutions-even the smallest-to indulge in an amount of self-complacency and jubilation over our past achievements such as an individual alone would blush to own as the result of even a most superficial introspection, exhilarating as the aforesaid sensations may be. On the other hand, abject humility is not numbered among the cardinal virtues, least of all by the pessimists, or those who see things as they really are -let the ages pronounce the terms synonymous- that is not for us! Then, in attempting to steer safely between the Scylla of self-content and the Charybdis of despairing humanity, we may well choose to forget the things that are behind and enter into the open with the hope for the. long stretches ahead. That such hope for the future is justi- fiable we assume from the gladness and profit found in the present, in work performed, in light-hearted accord, in interest responding to interest, and in that strange, inexplicable bond that gives to the whole its unity, the sweet, constraining power We call friendship. , 125 RON Qf m2IllbQl'S. 1905 MAY CANFIELD I1f:ss1E HALSTEAD GRACE COX I'IEI.lEN I-IAMPSON FLORENCE DAVIES ANNA IWQCDANIELS A K.XT1lI.liIEN SENTON 1906 EDITH FRANCIS LUCY I-IOR1c1Ns LUCY GROSVENOR N IELLTE SHELL MARGUERITE HULL CORA TAYLOR RACHEL YOUNG . 1907 GERTRUDE DEXTER ' MARY PARSONS 1908 ANNA MAY BARTI.ETT FLORENCE LE1-IMAN Conservatory EYDITH GARDNER C 1.Xll.

We, the oldest society for Women in Oberlin College feel heavily the responsibility of bearing up the Stand- ard on our sloping modern shoulders, but while we have thy help, We need not fear that our standard will ever drag its folds in the dust. Nay, let the charter members themselves come back and look upon us, and though we may have changed in some respects, though L. L. S. no longer stands for a gentle feminine title in plain English, but for an erudite Latin motto, they will know us for the same, by our pride in our ancient lineage, and by our un- changed devotion to thee, oh Oration! We come, generation after generation of maidens, and We worship for a little at thy shrine and pass by, and others come. And as we worship before thee, we lay at thy feet, oh Oration, the most precious gifts we have, and it is indeed a glorious return which thou makest us. And the tale of our gifts is this: We make offering unto thee of our voices, gentle and low, and in the place of that which we have lost, we are enabled by thee to speak loud and high, albeit somewhat shrill. We offer to thee our seemly maiden shynessg and then dost thou give us strength to go upon the plat- form without fear, and with eyes no longer demurely cast down and hands no longer meekly clasped, do we boldly face that great audience of nine and forty other maidens called L. L. And the last of our gifts is this: We cast from us before thee our womanly reservelike a garment, and then are we enabled to put away any foolish fondness for concealing our emotions from the public gaze,-on the contrary we seek eagerly for questions which shall stir our feelings, and we present them with such burning eloquence that the passions of our hearers are aroused, and their souls harrowed. With pity and fear we effect such a purgation of the emotions that chills run up and down the spines of our audience and their hairs stand up. Now they are moved to laughter and now to tears. Such blessings hast thou bestowed upon us, such silver-tongued elo- quence hast thou given us, thus hast thou borne up our Standard for us, and kept bright the honor of our ancient name. Here's to thee, oh Oration of L. L. S.! 129 Roll of mQlllb2l'S. Faculty Member MRS. A. A. F.

ELIOIAN! ,Tis a name to conjure with, if by good fortune one is of that elect band which has mastered the pronunciation of those awful syllables. 'Tis a noble thing to belong to the ranks of the Light- Bearers, for they shine neither with the fitful gleams of the fire-fly nor with the pallid light of the inconstant moon, nor as the lightning flash which carries destruction before it, but with a steady, gracious light which inspires all it touches. The novice in the circle of the Light-Bearers burns with a pale, quiet flame like that of a Christmas candle or as that useful but unob- trusive light-a lamp with a green shade. At the weekly illuminations, one can trace the many stages and many lines of development in the evolution of a Light-Bearer. The assembly of lights appears first as a candelabrum, each light gentle and quiet. At times an eerie light in the form of a small mouse causes the candelabrum to flicker and flare. Then one beholds the brilliant search-light which casts its glare upon the pyrotechnics of a former illumination, resolving them to nothingness. One may see the scholarly student lamp pouring forth wisdom in a steady glow, or the devouring flames of passion as an inspired Light-Bearer leads her sisters through the mazes and intrigues produced by a frenzied fancy. In that form of Con- flagration known as Parliamentary Drill one sees the candelabrum suddenly transformed to flaming torches with here and there a Roman candle or a sky-rocket or the reflector throwing its beams on the winding and devious ways of the Rules of Robert. 'Tis a glorious thing to be a ig 1 q that the light shall never dim or grow pale, but shall ever shine with increas- ing splendor, bearing with it happiness and honor. As they go into the outer darkness of the world of barbarians, the Light-llearers shall be an inspiration to countless multitudes and down the ages shall stream the radiant beams of the Promethean fire which is the gift of Aelioian, L'Ul t-Bearer, since Fortune has decreed 133 PERMELIA ALLEN ELIZABETH BARTLETT FRANCES BEEDE MARION BISSELL DESSIE BORTIIWICK AIZBIIE CAMPBELL CLARA CAVELL LOUISE CLEARWATER NANCY GLEASON ALTHEA BERRY BER'r11A CARTER BESSIE GORDON ALEARETfrA GREGG HELEN COCHRAN ROSE RUDIN ROII of members. 1905 LOUISE GROVE RENA :HOLMES CLARIBEL LEGGAT .

Rolmousn, '05 142 R REVIEW HOUGH the Oberlin Review is the organ of student sentiment, we disclaim any connection with pipes, we hope we do not do our own blowing, we take copious notes, and we pump people for 11ews. We aren't as sharp as we might be, though we have kept from behind the bars so far. Some of our literary attempts have fallen flat, we have a vio- lent antipathy for the man who stops our paper, but if worst comes to worst we will face the music. Now to quit playing on words and to get Bach to the real theme-the Review. ' The Review-what is it? VVhy is it? Where is it? Let us consider this subject logically and in order. First-What is it? The Review differs from the Philistine. The Phil- istine, according to Fra lilbertus Hubbard, is a periodical of protest. Our paper is rather a periodical which is protested. VVe are a sixteen-page paper devoted to the entire interests of the students of Oberlin College, and to the partial interests of the Faculty. Fundamentally the Oberlin Review is .1 newspaper, and not in any sense a literary magazine. Owing to the absence of a suitable vehicle for the expression of the literary inclinations of prolific theme writers, we have at times made distinct efforts to find space for the publication of so-called literary matter in our columns. We look forward to the day when the Re- view shall work in co-operation with a literary monthly. But it boots us not to dream idle dreams. VVe speak of the Review. Second-Why is it? It exists in order that a few loyal subscribers and a great many ever-present neighbors may see their names in print. It exists 143 in order that this same group of moneyed men and neighbors may sing com- laints to the silvery strains of an anvil chorus. It is our purpose to con- p . tribute to the sum total of the accumulated happiness of the world by fur- nishing food for knocks, by giving' gentle readers copious opportunities to tell us how it might have been done. Finally, it exists that those who Hing the ink may drown their sorrows by exasperating the public, and, incidentally, unloading, in a distinctly non-subtle fashion, the burden of their opinion concerning men and events. We like it and we hope the public does. 'P 1 't l . Presumably in the waste-basket. Third-Where is it. We c on mow fx, ,f . W 1 ' , - ws 1 '1' P Qi 'J-Llgtg--lu L' E I5 riffilugbnjiir.

Ten years later the students of.Oberlin College held their lirst Mock National Republican Convention. Those were stirring times, and Glnerlin was deeply interested in the drama just then enacted in the South. The war had practically come to a closeg the principle for which Oberlin stood, was an assured reality, the name of Lincoln was on every tongueg all the North was rejoicing in the freedom of a race. Under such circumstances the students gathered in the old College chapel for their first great Mock Convention. VVhat enthusiasm there must have been, when, after the usual formalities were over, the name of the Saviour of the Repub- lic was presented and received their endorsement as the candidate of the Republican party for President of the United States! We can hardly con- ceive how the people of that day felt after such a crisis had been passed so successfully. But in that convention they expressed their feeling in a most telling way that has left a deep impression on the student enterprises of the college. Every fourth year since that time there has been held here in Oberlin a Mock National Republican Convention. Many of Americals foremost men have been endorsed by these assemblages. Here have been nominated for 153 the presidency such men as Grant, Blaine, Hayes, Edmonds, Gresham, Har- rison and McKinley. Here have been endorsed the policies of that re- nowned quartette, Lincoln, Grant, Garfield, and McKinley. Starting from small beginnings, with delegations that contained but a few of the number of delegates authorized by Congress, the Mock Convention has grown in size and magnificence until it has become one of the great events of a studcnt's college course. Who can forget the evening of June 6, 1904, when there gathered in the First Church delegations representing forty-nine states and territories, besides Alaska, Hawaii, Cuba and the Philippines. For months the Work of preparation had been going on, each state was interested to make the best showing. Every delegation wore or carried something representative of its industries or political standing. California was represented by her strings of oranges and by her flowers, Alabama, by her cotton pickers in their many colored rags and tattersg Georgia, by her farmers and Dowiites with their red bandannas and linen clusters. Indiana, under the leadership of her Senator and politician, J. G. Earl, was there with her Fairbanks scales. Headed by that rnatchlessdebater, the Honorable C. L. Sentz, came Kansas with her bushels of corn and grain. Kentucky attracted attention with her contesting delegations, the one, with A 154 Colonel S. F. Bellows as its chairman, representing the moonshiners and sharp-shooters of that dread state, the other, with the renowned reformer H. C. Warth as leader, standing for the more quiet and peaceful element of the commonwealth. Massachusetts with her colonial men and women was conspicuous, but she was rivalled by the delegation from Minnesota, who, dressed in white and carrying sacks of Hour upon their shoulders, presented the great flour- ing industries of the state under the chairmanship of Louis the Miller. Congressman Ellis led a delegation of statesmen with frock coats and slouch hats, and their ladies from Missouri. Headed by a band, they 'Q 4 . l i, A I marched with a proud air, as if to say, We're from Missouri And you'll have to show us. The Nebraska delegation displayed the grazing and grain-raising interests of their native state. Nevada, with her prairie schooner, represented the forty-niner going across the mountains to open up the gold fields. New Jersey, the home of trusts, showed her opposition to the anti-trust law by a trust plank for the platform. Roosevelt's own state was there with her rough riders and statesmen, seventy-eight strong. Ohio, the state of presi- dents, was at the front with her guardian angel Comings Hoating over 155 ' her delegation. The Lone Star State made a strong showing with her cowboys in their sombreros, blue shirts, and leggings. Wiscorisin called attention to her one great industry, Schlitz, the beer that made Milwaukee famous. From the District of Columbia came two delegates, Uncle Sam and Columbia. Arizona and Indian Territory sent their Indians with pipes of peace. Other states were represented by delegations and banners, equally striking and signihcant. After all had assembled, Senator Alexander Dick, of Massachusetts, chairman of the executive committee, called the meeting to order and after a short prayer by the Reverend I. IE. Bill, of Oberlin, Honorable David F. Nye, of New York, read the call for the convention. Honorable Paul Howland, of New York, was then selected to serve as temporary chairman. In a short address, Mr. Howland reviewed the last four years of the Re- publican administration and showed the needs of the party. He spoke of the responsibility resting on the convention, to choose men, who should conduct the government as well as it had been conducted in the past, and who should maintain the principles for which the party has always stood. At the conclusion of his speech he appointed the temporary officers and committees. When the committees had withdrawn, Honorable S. K. Tompkins, delivered a eulogy on McKinley and Hanna, the two leaders who 156 had died since the last convention. He summed up the lives of these two statesmen and paid them a grand tribute of honor and appreciation. The committees then announced that they were ready to report. The committee on credentials reported two contested delegations, Utah and Kentucky, and suggested that they be heard. Colonel Henry Clay Warth, at the head of the contesting Kentucky delegation, made an eloquent plea for the right to be seated. His delegation, he claimed, represented the bone and sinew of the real Kentucky Republican who stood for clean politics. He denounced the other delegation and called them Taylorites and other pet names. In reply, Colonel Harry Shurtz, revolver in hand, his eyes flashing, and his every movement expressing his inward righteous indigna- tion, so eloquently defended his delegation that almost uncontrollable en- thusiasm was aroused and it was with difficulty that order was restored. VVithout one dissenting vote Colonel Shurtz and his delegation were seated. Honorable P. D. Hillis, chairman of the committee on resolutions, next read the platform. It was a fine piece of work and compared favorably with the regular platform adopted a few weeks later. Two resolutions were olfered as amendments to the platform, and one of them, presented by Congressman Ellis, of Missouri, and providing for the disfranchisement of all voters taking or offering a bribe, was adopted. At IO p. m. the con- vention adjourned until the following night. 157 SECOND NIGHT The enthusiasm of the first night had not abated in the least when Honorable Paul Howland, of New York, the temporary chairman, rapped for order at 7 o'elock on the evening' of June 7. Reverend Dr, Bradshaw opened the convention with prayer. The first business to be taken up was the report of the committee on permanent organization. They reported as their choice for permanent officers the following gentlemen: Permanent chairman, Honorable Warreil G. Harding, Lieutenant Governor of Ohio, general secretary, judge David F. Nye, of New York, sergeant-at-arms, Squire Ezra Burgc, of Oberlin, Ohio. This report was unanimously adopted. After the permanent chairman had been escorted to the chair, he spoke of the history of the Republican party, past and present, and then outlined the needs of the future and exhorted the delegates as to their duty to elect in this convention men who should maintain the policies of the party which they represented. His address Finished, the really serious work of the convention began- the nomination of a President and a Vice-President. Intense excitement prevailed, all seemed to feel that a great obligation was laid upon them and for a few moments quiet reigned throughout the auditorium, while Secretary 158 Nye read the roll of states. VVhen the name of California was reached, her delegation yielded to Colorado and Honorable R. W. Paterson placed in nom- ination a son of Illinois whom she delighted to honor, Speaker Cannon. This nomination was seconded by Honorable D. C, Jones, of Mississippi. Florida yielded to Georgia, and the much feared dark horsel' of the convention was brought forth. In words of burning eloquence, his voice vibrating with emotion, Congressman Grove H. Patterson placed in nomination the father of Zionf' the prophet of a new era, Elijah Dowie, of Zion City, Chicago. The regular organization trembled, for the popular demonstration following the nomination was tremendous and for several minutes the applause con- tinued unabated. The roll of states was again resumed and no response was made until New York was called. A thrill of expectancy ran through thelconventiong the delegates from Nevada and Indian Territory strained forward in their seats to catch a glimpse of the man who was chosen by Roosevelt himself to present him as candidate for the presidency. And they were not dis- appointed, ex-Governor Brown, of New York, at once made a favorable impression. In dignified and clear-cut tones, he briefly, yet adequately, sketched the career of Mr. Roosevelt and said that in nominating him for President the Republican party was doing nothing but what would bring 159 blessings upon itself and prosperity to the country. As he closed, the con- vention rosc in a body, the bands began to play and the men who had seen a chance for Dowic fell back disappointed, for they realized that it was the orator and not the candidate who had received the applause. Mr. A. W. Goodenongh and Senator E. E. Sheplar, of Kentucky, ably seconded the nomination of Governor Brown. The voting now began and Mr. Roosevelt was unanimously nominated. The fight for the second place on the ticket promised to be a warm one. A number of states had favorite sons to nominate, but it was generally conceded that the real fight was to be between Senator Fairbanks, of In- diana, and Honorable A. G. Comings, of Ohio. On the first ballot Mr. Comings had 313 votes and Senator Fairbanks 404. There was no election. Consternation reigned among the regulars, short conferences were hur- riedly called among' the leaders, and just before the second ballot, a telegram was received from Mr. Comings, asking that his name be withdrawn. This eased matters somewhat and Senator Fairbanks was nominated. The work of the convention was over, the chairman now appointed as a committee to notify the candidates of their nomination-Senator Dick, of Massachusetts 3 Judge Nye, of New York, and Honorable R. W. Paterson, of Colorado. 4 160 In many ways, this was the most successful mock convention ever held in Oberlin. There was more enthusiasm than at the last one, and the spectacular and entertain- ing side was much more empha- sized. Yet the main features of the regular convention were strict- ly adhered to, and we are sure that all who attended had a clearer notion of the process by which our presidents and vice-presidents are nominated. The committee were well repaid for the weeks and months of thought and labor ex- pended in making the convention the success that it was. We are sure that they have a right to feel that the end crowned the work.

This year has shown an in- crease of one hundred in membership. An unusually large proportion come from the conservatory and academy and more members are serving' on com- mittees than in previous years. There has been an increase from 300 to 325 in the enrollment for llible study, and from 40 to loo in mission study classes. The association has been particularly fortunate this year in the num- ber of visits received from national and international secretariesg that of Miss llertha Conde showed perhaps the greatest results, since it meant a general spiritual awakening' to many, and to some the beginning of a Christian life. One thing which has characterized the improvement of the year is the broadening' of interests among the members in supporting work, not only in and about Oberlin, but in different parts of the United States and in other countries. The aim of the cabinet is soon to have an association office and a gen- eral secretary who shall give her entire time to the work. 174 ' ' CABINET 1904-05. Y. w. z. 11. officers.

HE Oberlin Volunteer Band stands for world-wide evangelization, based upon the declaration of Christ that the Held is the World,', and His last command to His disciples to go and make disciples of all na- tions. This movement was first started in Oberlin in June, 1881, at a time when special interest had been aroused by the study of Church His- tory in the Theological Seminary under Professor Judson Smith, and as a result the Oberlin China Band was organized. The purpose of the band was the founding and re-enforcing of a mission under the patronage of the American Board in the Province of Shansi, China. There were fifteen charter members, of whom President King was one of the leaders. In 1886, at a 'conference of American and Canadian students, the Volunteer movement for foreign missions had its rise, and that same year, through the visit of Mr. George P. VVilder, a representative of the move- ment, who is now in india, the China Band inerged into the Oberlin Volun- teer Band. The interest in missions aroused at the time was very great, and about fifty persons enrolled as Volunteers. Those of the institution who have since felt an obligation in this great field have been bound together in unity of purpose, prayer, and Christian fellowship as is possible in no other college organization. Its basis of membership is the signing of the declaration, It is my purpose, if Cod permit, to become a foreign mission- ary. The purpose of the Volunteer Hand is the evangelization of the world. To this end it calls for complete consecration to the Masters service, and along with this personal responsibility, it endeavors to create a like interest and consecration for world-wide evangelization on the part of all true Christians. The results of the movement everywhere have fully justified its organization. lt has been characterized as the greatest uprising for the evangelization of the world since the days of the Apostles. On the one hand, the world is open to Christianity as never before i11 the history of civilization-not half of which has yet heard the gospel of jesus Christ, on the other hand, men and'women undoubtedly moved and prepared of God in fast increasing but still inadequate numbers. This can be no chance coincidence. The prospects for the Oberlin Band in munbers and in deepened conse- cration to the work were never more hopeful than at present. The signs of the times point toward a strong revival of missionary interest in Oberlin as well as in many other institutions where there is a Volunteer Band. 179 ,.f-N JUDGE STEELE 1 lm CU. SIQQIQ. 'UDGE JOHN W. STEELE would have been a marked man in any community. He was a man cast in a11 u11co1nmon mould, gifted with rare qualities of mind and heart a11d with a knowledge of human nature that enabled hin1 to touch the secret springs of human action-a born leader of 111611. To the present generation of students l1e 1nay not have been personally lil1OW11, but perhaps to 110 other 1na11 do the students in Oberlin owe more for the things that make for the health a11d comfort tl1at co111e from our very efficient system of Waterworks and sewers. Judge Steele gave himself to public service to an uncommon degree, whether tl1at service concerned the community, the college, or the nation. No personal sacrifice on l1is part deterred him from giving his best to the community or to individuals. One had but to go with him over tl1e Waterworks park or tl1e grounds of the Children's Home to learn how mucl1 of l1is ow11 life went into these things, and this revelation came unconsciously from l1in1. No man estimated his work IUOFC modestly. No trait of this 1na11 was more pronounced than his great friendliness. He gave himself lavishly to those who were fortunate enough to penetrate tl1e reserve which seemed to surrou11d the real 111811. This reserve was in the nature of a shield for tl1e extreme sensitive11ess of his- own 11ature. Innately he had the delicacy of feeling and intuition that belongs to the true gentleman. He was endowed witl1 a rugged honesty that made it impos- sible for him to sl1a1n. He could 11Ot appear even to seem to conform to standards fixed by others tl1at his OW11 experience would not justify. He had a high sense of personal honor that would not allow him to profit by traffic in it. He was a companionable man witl1 wl1o1n it was a delight and great pleasure to be, particularly wl1en l1e felt himself to be off duty and among co11ge11ial friends. His was a nature tl1at came to its best only under the stimulus of sympathetic appreciation and i11 a marked degree withdrew upon itself i11 other circumstances. He possessed a kee11 and gentle wit tl1at was a pleasure to l1is friends and a lively sense of humor that enabled him to appreciate situations that would have embittered more 11arrow-minded 111e11. In the death of judge Steele Oberlin College lost a sincere a11d genuine friend, a11d there passed from life one of the rarest 111011 that the community has ever had. Though l1e lived a life of public service in an exceptional degree, there was a warm and i11te11sely human side to his life tl1at o11ly i11ti111ate friends were fortunate enough to know in all its depth and rich- ness. Few, perhaps, realized what a wealth of friendship a11d sympatl1y l1e possessed, and how unstinteclly he poured it out upon those whom he felt liked and trusted l1in1. His heart was one with kindliest motion warm, gentle as a WOI'113.11,S, with qualities that drew out affection on the part of other me11 i11 a way that is rare among men. 181 llc Zercle Francais. A.

Edwin Fauveris connection with Oberlin's athletics has been a long and ifrilliant one. Playing upon the football and baseball teams, he has been a member of eight 'Varsity teams and his work upon both teams during the entire period was such as to furnish a standard by which to measure the subsequent achievements of Oberlin's football and baseball heroes. Mr. Fauver first served his Alma Mater as coach in the fall of 1899. and has been since that time coach of both football and baseball, in addition to the important work he has done in the department of physical training. Oberlin owes a debt of gratitude to Edwin Fauver for the victories he has helped to win as a player, for the service he has 1'C1'KlCI'Cfl as a coach, but more than all for the infiuenee he has had upon athletics and the position he has taken with the men. The College ,authorities have had absolute confidence in him and that confidence has not been violated. The teams which have represented Ober- lin under hiscoaehing have been made up of bona fide students, amateurs, and gentlemen trained to play to the last ounce a g'entleman's game and to win if it could be done by fair means, but imbued with the spirit that a victory won by other than fair means is bought too dearly. It will be impossible to replace Mr. Fauver. No man can carry on the work he has done. Indeed Mr. A. A. Stagg seems to be the only other coach in the country with versatility sufficient to coach all teams and do some gymnasium work besides. The committee has yet no definite plan for next year, but as we bid good-bve 'to llll r. liauver we can say, the past, at least. is secure. The condition of athletics in Oberlin is a healthy and normal one. The teams have the support of the student body and the facultyg and their members are under the control and supe1'vision of the faculty as to eligibility and scholarship. Oberlin's first requirement for the members of her teams is that they shall be eligible and that they shall do their college work, her second that they shall if possible win. The College is especially thankful to Mr. Fauver for his wholehearted assistance in keeping athletics in this condition and for the aid he has given the faculty committee in their work. It would be, I am sure. the reward he would cherish most if the Alumni could unite in that involuntary shout which so many of us have heard when some brilliant feat of his has added another victory to Oberlin's list: Hi-O-Hi, O-Hi-O, 'Hi-Hi, O-Hi, Oberlin. VVin! VVin!! WIN!!! May he play the same kind of a game wherever he goes and Whatever he does. 190 COACH FAUVER MANAGER KEl.LER. CAPTAIN BEl.l.Ows. MANAGER JONES. HIDIQIK flSSOCidIi0ll.

O a would-be chronieler, the football season of 1904 in Oberlin presents too peculiar a front for comfort. To do it justice one should be an authority on tragedy and comedy, a discriminator between the true and the false, a believer in the unjust fates, and above all should have malice toward all and charity for none. No one who knows the situation fulfills the demands. The season was peculiar in its fluctuations, in the soaring from the depths of despair to the heights of hope and the abrupt plunges back. Nothing could be counted upon except the certainty of the unexpected 5 events seemed under the spell of the ever-changing choice of a capricious fate. With the opening of school all prospects of a good team seemed most dismal, in a week they were never brighter. Thus hopes alternately died out and blazed up. The despairing struggle against teams of inferior men from inferior institutions were succeeded hy the gamiest light against teams supposed to be much superior. At times no man seemed to care whether we Won or lost, while at others no one could do enough. The spirit of the ,., 194 1 ,U . il?-f'.y.,,, 'ns ,N A players shows through the record-the gpoor games exhibiting their carelless- ness, but the good ones their nerve and resolution. At any rate the best came at the latter part of the season and the result still satisfies. Briell y the season ran about as follows : The Olivet game was a surprise-a pleas- ant surprise, and exceeded expectations. Wfooster was the first slump with only a glimmer of football-just enough to win the game. Ohio Wesleyaii was, is, and always shall be, world without end, a nightmare-a blind, heart-breaking, unorganized melee in a stone quarry, with the other fellows possessing what J. M. CLIFTON life there was: incidentally they were accustomed to being mauled about over rocks until if anything broke or got sore, it was the mineral relics of the young yca1's of the earth. Kenyon brought a little encouragement because she was said to be stronger than Delaware, and Oberlin won by a few minutes of real play at the end of a lot of the Business College article. Case was much feared, and rightly, but'such improvement had been made that Oberlin lost only after a long, bitter, uphill battle. Reserve had her characteristic time with Oberlin, the 195 1. W. Kurvsn 'Q WJ-. sl ills nf qi 5' askin .. - e fs 'W .. '1 latter playing only enough to keep slight- ly in the lead, then becoming somnambu- listic, allowing a tie when too little time was left to again win the game. O. S. U. made a successful season out of one that appeared irretrievable, and that, too, through no fault of her own. Now we may loolc more at the partic- ulars of the year. The fall began in the routine fashion of a week at Linwood Park with its accompanying pleasantries such as falling :tt the ball, vain efforts to catch it, scrimmaging in hay stub- ble, surf feats with boats and otherwise, Jack Koster's sojourn under the pump E. H. MCDANIELS and Rose. VVhen Oberlin was reached, method became more apparent and a fair team was turned out for the first game. The Delaware game was in itself un- fortunate, but theaeffect was good. It was lost, not because of the weakness of the men nor of the organization of the team, but because of over-confidence. The general attitude seemed to be that Oberlin had come down to the Orient to show off some real live football men: on the Held more attention was paid to seeing that the grandstand appreciated 196 and last but not least duets by Joe Ellis S. D. Moiuum. the personalities of the vistors rather than their football endeavors. Mean- while the slug'gish heathen improved the shining moments to such an extent that the representatives of football-as-it- should-be-played checked up less on the score card than their intended victims. Many changes were tried, but practi- cally the same line-up lasted after the O. W. U. game. Then came a shift dur- ing which Eva MacDaniels attempted to qualify for the back Held. During a frolic with the cads he started with the ball from varsity's ten yard line, ran fif- teen minutes and was downed from in front on the fifty-five yard line. S. METCALF C. D. BR1Nm.H The shake-up so reorganized the team that steady improvement both in spirit and in play was evident to the end. At Cleveland came the revelation of Oberlin's developing' strength. Of Casc's three touchdowns one came in the,last couple of minutes of each half. When the last one was made, but four of the eleven men who started were on the Held. The others had been removed, one at a time, not on account of lack of ability, but because they were too ex- hausted to continue to play. The two teams had practically the same speed, but 197 Case was so overwhelmingly heavy that her weight bore down on her lighter op- ponent. Odds had been laid on a large score for Case, but her supporters were thankful for what she got. After the game nothing was expressed but admi- ration for the stubborn stand of the losers and wonder that their weight could hold the rushes of their rivals. After that game Reserve looked so easy that the men were given some much- needed rest and entertainment. Of the latter we should not overlook Morrill's spectacular performance at quarter nor Roses contribution. The latter was while he was struggling single handed l i -A l 1 4 1 J. L. Souru in a lively scrimmage that he shouted to his comrades: Fo' He'vin's, come and help me! Do yo' think Ah can run on one laig ? For the sake of those who know not the vicissitudes of the Reserve-Oberlin game, it should be stated that Reserve always manages to play her strongest game against Oberlin. Her sick, her halt and her blind all rise up to partici- pate in the feast and none of them ever knows when they are beaten. With score and odds all against them, they all bring it to pass that in the last few minutes 198 the game is in their favor. On the other hand, Oberlin seems never able to get far enough ahead to cinch,' the game in spite of any superiority of her men or team. The game of 1904 was no excep- tion, but rather an excellent example. Throughout it was evident that Reserve was outclassed, but nevertheless she tied the score. Oberlin scored first, in a few minutes of good play, then stood around watching Ike's wild efforts to kick the shins of the sacrifice opposite to him un- til Reserve made a touchdown. Imme- diately Oberlin woke up and scored again. Thereafter she merely whilecl W. H. WOLFE run scored another touchdown for Re- serve and that with too short a time left to play for Oberlin to recover her lead. Ohio State was already conceded the championship and spectators went to Dill field only to see how high the score would be. As the game wore on and O. S. U. became less effective, despair gave way to hope. When the contest was fi- nally finished and in Oberlin's favor, the reaction from utter hopelessness to tri- umph was too much for the crowd, and the team was just as wild. The game itself was consistent, with a defense too powerful for O. U. successfully to 199 away the time until a lucky seventy yard -A-..,,, E. KOS'I'ER penetrate. The spirit of tl1e Case game prevailed, tl1e me11 were in better con- dition a11d the team worked as a Lllllt, -every 1112111 being in every play a11d that where he would do tl1e n1ost good. Pushed back into their OW1l territory their fierceness increased until tl1e Uber- lin goal-line seemed to be the limit wl1icl1 could bc constantly approached but never reached. Tl1e last time it was first down with tl1e ball O11 the three yard line- tl1ree plays to average only a yard apiece. Then came the Hereest serin1111ag'i11g of the game. O. S. U. lhrice came on 111 fuiy, Thrice turned back i11 dread, Zlllil after the last Cl0NVl1 there was still six inches to gain. ' T This was the turning point of the game and after that it was fought out on an eve11 basis. If O. S, U. was de- ficient anywhere it was i11 generalship, for they seldom kicked O11 third dOw11 Zlllll the omission many times lost them tl1e ball and much valuable groiind. The enthtisiasm ofthe student body bore fruit in tl1e success of the tea111. As the 200 R. ELLIS spirit of a school is dependent upon that e of each individual in it and he is person- ally responsibleg so is the spirit of a team dependent upon that of the college. The fall as a whole was characterized by the loyal support of the students and any representatives would have been ashamed to do other than their best. However, until after the Delaware game there was some little friction among the men and a i tendency to shirk work, shifting the re- sponsibility upon team mates. After ' that lesson the men settled down to work and each took, not only his individual re- sponsibility, but that of the team and in- ' - . wr, ' J. A. DOLAN viii L. H. PRINCE stitutiong as a result came better fellow- ship and to that, above all, may be at- tributed the fortunate end of the season. The final triumph stamped success on the year. Until her defeat at Oberlin, O. S. U. was admitted to be the champion of the State even by the Cleveland papers. Under this condition victory would be sweet, but when no one dared hope for it, it was sweeter still. With the fall of Ohio State, 'Case was prompt to claim the championship, although by her own admission with no claim. With 201 Ol l'n Oberlin over O S ' Q over C'1se Case over e JCl'1 , O. S. U.

VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM, 1904 lu' , :- 1 ' U Y Season of 1905 HIE third Varsity basket ball season has passed into history. and still Oberlin has not quite succeeded in winning the coveted State champion- ship. Although it lacked individual stars, the team as a whole was un- doubtedly the strongest that has so far represented Oberlin. 'l'hat it did not win the championship is due simply and solely to that weakness which has marred so many Oberlin teams-erratic playing. Over 'forty candidates began work ea1'ly in November, and by Christ- mas the squad had been cut down to about a dozen men, including the Varsity and a strong scrub, which remained intact throughout the season. Of last year's Varsity, but two men we1'e available, so that the team was composed for the most part of new and inexperienced players. The per- sonnel was as follows: Captain Hoopes for the third year played right forward. He excelled in shooting baskets and was far superior to any opponents in throwing fouls. Most was easily the best man for the other forward and was capable of playing a remarkably fast game. Evans played substitute forward and divided center honors with Iaten. Olmstead, last year's center, was out of the game during the tirst half of the season and was greatly handicapped by the resultant lack of practice. The centers this year have played splendid guarding games and have got in well on the team-work: but they have been lamentably weak at basket throwing. Morrison, of last year's Varsity, and Vradenburg, ol' the '03 team, played the guard positions in a way almost beyond criticism. lylorrison excelled in close-guarding and Vradenburg in speed and tloor work. The schedule this year included more games than ever before. Of the eleven played, seven were won, giving a higher percentage than in any pre- 207 vious season. The teams played were VVooster, Buchtel, VVisconsin, O. S. U., Mt. Union, Allegheny, Reserve and Hiram. The 'Wisconsin game was one of the fastest ever seen in VVarner, Gymnasium, and was won in spite of a strange referee, enforcing a strange style of game. The other out-of--state game with Allegheny College, at Mcadville, Pennsylvania, resulted, as usual, in defeat, though by a much closer score than that of a year ago. Whether it is a wise policy for Oberlin to meet such teams as Allegheny is doubtful. They play the typical Eastern game, in which roughness is one of the main elements,--a game entirely different from that of the Middle West and one which Oberlin certainly does not care to adopt. Of the games played with State colleges, the two with Ohio State University were by far the fastest and cleanest. The first one at Columbus was lost in the last five minutes by a narrow margin of six points. Two weeks later Oberlin more than had her revenge when O. S. U. was defeated 36 to 20. Reserve also split even with Oberling each won its home game, and again Varsity was much superior in point of comparative scores. That Oberlin lost the Reserve game at Cleveland and, incidentally, the State. championship, was due to one of those inexplicable, slumps which the best of teams may have. The fact that Varsity was nine points ahead at the end of the tirst half shows what might have been had the team not gone to pieces. It was one of the' many queer freaks of basket ball luck, and we can only regret that it came at such an unfortunate time. The prospects for a winning team for next year could scarcely be brighter. Captain Hoopes is the only one of the Varsity Five who will not return. With such a nucleus as this to build on, Oberlin should certainly be able to clinch, at last, that long-coveted State championship. The only possible weakness is at forward, and there surely should be several first- rate candidates from last season's class teams. But whatever the future may bring forth, the '05 Varsity can certainly congratulate itself on being the best team which has so far represented Oberlin in basket ball. 208 CAPTAIN HOOPES Udl'SiW BZISKCIDGII adm.

Season of 1904 CASUAL glance at the record of the last baseball season reveals sev- eral unusual features. Not for many years has the spring term been so unsuited for baseball. During most of April there was still frost inthe ground and the winds were oft? the lake. In fact, there were scarcely half a dozen days in April when it would not have been more comfortable seated round a warm fire than it was attempting to play baseball, when the players' hands were as cold as though snow-balling had been the sport instead of the great national game. After the weather did warm up, a rainy season set in and more games were canceled, postponed or played in the rain than in the five years before. The Case game, for example, was postponed twice, and then finally played in the rain, when the grounds were in such condition that it was necessary to change the position of the diamond. The VV. R. U. game in Oberlin and the O. S. U. game in Colum- bus were both prevented by bad weather. llesides interfering with' the games, it prevented the team from doing regular practice. Almost a fourth of the time the field was not in condition to be used. Another factiwhich stands out rather prominently regarding last season was the number of new men on the regular team. Cf the team which represented Oberlin in 1903, only five remained in school, and of these Captain Hotchkiss had not yet recovered from his accident at Champaign in 1903, when his leg was broken. lt was not until late in the season that he could be depended upon to take his place on the team, and even then his work was seriously affected by his lameness. Hence there were six places to be filled by new men, third base, shortstop, second base, two pitchers and an outfield position. ' As usual, work began in the cage early in january, and the pitchers were often forced to do their work there even late in April. Wiley, Conkey and McCloskey were selected as the pitchers. McCloskey was not well during much of the season, and hence did not show his best form. Conkey, who had pitched a few games in IQO3, showed more ability a11d skill. Wiley was clearly the best of the pitchers and, had it not seemed necessary to work him, so hard early in the season, he would have won a large percent of all his games. As it was, he pitched some splendid games, but he never quite recovered from the severe work which he did early in the spring, 213 For the infield positions, Rupp, a new man with high school experience at Keudallville, lndianag Sandberg, of the 1903 Academy teamg A. S. Bar- rows, of the 1905 class team, and Shepler, of the 1902 and 1903 Varsity teams, were selected, with Taylor and liulton as substitutes. After many changes, Rupp was placed at third, Sandberg at short, Barrows at second and Shepler at first. Todd did all the catching during the season, and showed much improvement over his 1903 work. In the outfield, Hoopes was placed in left, McCloskey in center, while Funk, Captain Hotchkiss and Wiley played right. The first game of the schedule was to have been with Reserve on April 2OlZl1, but rain made it necessary to postpone it, and finally to omit it entirely. On Saturday, April 23d, the first game was played. The weather and grounds were in almost perfect condition, and the game with Hiram was a good one in which to try the men. It was a close contest, with Hiram leading until the seventh inning, when, by good batting, Oberlin scored four runs and won the game. Conkey and VViley did the pitching. The final score was five to two, Oberlin made nine hits and six errors, while Hiram secured three hits and made two errors. Ohio State was played May 4. Wiley pitched his best game of the season, striking out thirteen men and allowing Columbus but six hits. But his good work could not make up for the poor playing of the rest of the team, which made nine errors and eight hits. Columbus played well and deserved to win by a score of 7-I. Case School was defeated in Cleveland May 7. Oberlin at that time seemed to be rounding into form, the batting was excellent, but the fielding still somewhat loose, eleven runs, twelve hits and five errors tells how Oberlin played, while four runs, seven hits and eleven errors gives a fair idea of what Case did. The team made its Westerri trip earlier than ever before. The Univer- sity of Michigan was played at. Ann Arbor May 11, and it proved to be one of the most exciting games of the year. VViley was in excellent form and was given perfect support in the field. Oberlin scored her only, ru11 in the first inning, on two fumbles by the Ann Arbor infield, followed by two wild throws. In two other innings Oberlin had two men on bases with no one out, but could not score. Barrows made the only hit for Oberlin. Michi- gan, with four opportune hits, secured three runs, making the final score 3-I. The next game of the trip was played at Huntington, Indiana, where Oberlin for the first time met Central College. McCloskey pitched his only full game of the year, and shut Central out, 6-0. Oberlin played a splendid 214 fielding game, and only one error was scored against the teamg but the batting was weak-only five hits were made. The visit to I-Iuntington was made very pleasant through the kindness of President MacMurray. After the two splendid fielding games, the exhibition at Champaign the next day was inexcusable. Eleven errors were made. The University of Illinois had little trouble in winning the game by a score of 1412, and secured ten hits from Conkey, many of them being made after the side should have been retired. Rupp's batting was the only good feature of Oberlin's playing. A home run and two singles were his contribution to the total of six hits which Oberlin made. The last game of the trip was played at Delaware on a cold, rainy day. The diamond was changed to the outfield to make it possible to play at all. XfViley pitched a splendid game and should have won. Delaware won the game in the first inning, when she scored two runs on a long hit which looked so much like a foul that it took better eyes than the Oberlin men had to turn it into- a fair hit. Oberlin failed to make good use of their bats, and secured but three hits. The final score was 4-2. On the Western trip the team made fifteen hits and sixteen errors. On May I7 Chicago came to Oberlin and after ten hard-fought innings went away with the game. The weather was as disagreeable as the game was exciting. Wiley was sent in to pitch his third game in less than a week, all of them on cold, wet days. For nine innings he was very successful, retiring the side on several occasions by striking out the last two men when the bases were full. Oberlin tied the score in t'he eighth inning on a balk, which allowed Sandberg to score from third. In the tenth inning Chicago scored four times and won the game, 6-2. The Case game, which had been scheduled for April goth and had been postponed several times, was finally played in the rain over a temporary diamond laid out on the west end ofthe field. McCloskey attempted to pitch, and did fairly well until the fourth inning, when Case scored five runs and won the game. Conkey went in the latter part of the fourth inning, but too late to save the game. The runs, hits and errors were apportioned as follows: Oberlin, four runs, six hits, two errors, Case, five runs, nine hits and three errors. A For the Michigan game at Oberlin, we were favored with good weather. VN-'hile a good game had been expected because of Oberlin's excellent show- ing at Ann Arbor, lvlichigan won the game, 8-I. The Ohio Stale game, scheduled for May 30, was called off because of rain. On june I3 the University of illinois came to Oberlin. For four innings not a run was scored. Wiley pitched most excellent ball during that time, 215 but began to weaken and was finally relieved by Conkey later in the game. In the fifthhinning each team scored three times, but Oberlin could not score again during the game, while Illinois made eight more. Oberlin's errors, rather than the good batting of Illinois, were responsible for the number of runs. Seven misplays were scored against Oberlin, while Illinois made but one. The hits were, Oberlin 6, Illinois 8. Oberlin played in many ways the best game of the season at Cleveland, June 15, when she won from VV. R. U., 7-2. The men played with judg- ment and much confidence, Conkey held Reserve to six hits. Although Oberlin made but six hits, they all counted. ' The last game of the season was played with the Alumni and was lost, 1--8. The game was called in the eighth inning because of rain. The team, although it played a few good games, was not a strong one. It was below the average in both batting and fielding. We feel that this was because so many of the players lacked experience, and because the weather was such that it was impossible for any player to get into condition to do himself justice. rn .N D - 216 Udl'SllV Baseball Ceam, E.

Season of 1904 ILTTY men entered the lfield Day contests of M ay 7, IQO4, and some of their performances were unusually good. Hillis, '04, established a new college record in the shot-put, '38 feet 6y2 inches, breaking' by two inches his former record made in May, IQO3. hlr. Ilillis was not eligible to represent Oberlin at the llig' Six meet, because of the four-year rule, but the above throw would have won first place in that meet with a margin of nearly a foot. llacon, iO7, made a broad jump of 20 feet 9 inches, the best performance in three years in that event. At the llig' Six meet, three weeks later, however, he jumped 2I feet 916 inches, and established thereby both a new Oberlin College record and a new llig Six record. Bellows, '05, cleared 5 feet 82-3 inches in the high jump. His jumps in competition during' the last three years have been higher than those of any previous student in Oberlin. The other events which were notably good were the discus throw by Bellows, '05, loo feet 6 inches, the 440-yard dash by Pater- son, ,O4, 54 4-5 seconds, and the half-mile run by Biclcforcl, '05, 2 minutes and IO seconds. In four of the events the records of Field Day were poor. The pole vault, won by Hammond, '08, 8 feet 9 inches, wastthe poorest on record for six years, the time in the two-1nile run, won by Willnot, '05, was very slow, II minutes and 20 seconds, as was also the time in the one- mile run, WOI1 by Anderson, ,O4, in 4 minutes and 55 seconds, the Ioo-yard dash was won by Waclis, '05, in IO 3-5 seconds, but it was later ascertained 221 that the track was measured nine feet too long, an error responsible for about 3-IO of a second of added time. For Saturday, May 14th, a dual meet was scheduled with the strong team from Syracuse University, but rain prevented the meet after the Syracuse team had come to Oberlin. The Athletic Association lost S275 thereby, and the loss forcibly impressed upon the management of the asso- ciation the imperative need of a new cindered track, upon which races could be run off even in wet Weather. ' The rains of the succeeding week prevented the dual meet scheduled with the University of Wooster at Wooster' on Saturday, May 21st, and the Oberlin team therefore went to Cleveland for the Big Six meet with no previous competition a11d with the regular training much interrupted by rainy weather. The Big Six meet, held on VVednesday, May 25, at the Cleveland Driv- ing Park, was favored by good weather 3 the track was in fine condition, and the performances both by Oberlin's representatives and by the competitors from the other colleges were extremely good. The three men from other colleges whose work was noteworthy were Dawson of Case, and Brown and Boggs of Kenyon. Dawson won the Ioo-yard dash in IO seconds, the 220-yard dash in 22 4-5 seconds, and the 440-yard dash in 51 seconds. Brown ran the half mile in 2 minutes 2 2-5 seconds, and Boggs established a new discus record for the Big Six with a throw of 124 feet I inch. Mention has already been made of Bacon's broad jump of 2I feet 9M inches. Remarkable records were also made by two other Oberlin men. Anderson, '04, by winning both the one-n1ile and two-mile runs, accom- plished a task seemingly impossible. Either one of these races, against such competition as exists in the Big Six, is sufficiently taxing for any mang but 222 Anderson proved that he had marvellous endurance, and won both races. His time in the two-mile run was IO minutes IQ seconds, only four seconds slower than Berryman's run in 1903, and better than any other Oberlin representative has ever done. Then, with only a short rest, he ran the one- mile in 4 minutes 41 2-5 seconds. This time has only been beaten twice in Oberlin's history, and both of these by Mr. Anderson himself in the season of 1903. A The work of Bellows, '05, at the Big Six meet was equally conspicuous. He won the high hurdles in 162-5 seconds, equalling the former record made by K. Van Cleef in 1903. His time in the low hurdles was 27 seconds, a Fifth of a second slower than his own record of the previous year. He also established new records for Oberlin College Zlllfl for the Big Six by his high jump of 5 feet II inches. The one-mile relay race at the Big Six meet was won by Oberlin, with Kenyon second and Case third. Oberlin's time was 3 minutes 32 4-5 sec- onds. Oberlin's runners were Koster, ,O7, Miller, 304, Graves, ,O7, and Paterson, ,O4. The race was a pretty one, and the time was fast, averaging only 53 1-5 seconds for each quarter. This is not so remarkable a perform- ance as that of the Case team in 1903, when their time was 3 minutes 31 4-5 seconds, averaging slightly less than 53 seconds for each quarter. The Big Six 1neets of the last two years have been won by O-berlin largely because Oberlin's teams have been of such good quality that where the men were not able to win the races they were yet able to secure second, or third, o-r fourth places. The system of scoring is such that it counts just as much for a college to have one of its men finish second and the other third, as to have one man take first place and have the other distanced. The emphasis is now where it should be, upon the development of a strong 223 team rather than of individual stars. In IQO4 there were only three Oberlin men who won Firsts,--Bacon, Anderson and Bellows-but there were twelve others who won places. Case's lirsts were likewise won by three men, but the Case team contained only seven others who were able to secure places. The Athletic Association was unusually fortunate in being able to secure tl1e services of Mr. Thomas F. Keane as coach of its track team of IQO4. Mr. Keane's intimate knowledge of the requirements of many of the athletic events, his ability to instruct the men in the small details as well as i11 the general principles, and above all, his skill in dealing with the men and his ability in gaining' their confidence and obedience, made it possible for Oberlin to turn out a winning team. Under Mr. Keane, track athletics advanced more during the season of 1904 than during any previous year in the history of the college. .L- Financially, the track season of 1904 was a disastrous one. The net loss to the Athletic Association was more than 35600, and the Association is still much embarrassed by the increase in its debt due to the track season of 1904. 4 The summaries for the two llig Six meets follow: May 28, I903 Total Ist. 2nd, 3rd, 4th.

LASS athletics this year have not brought forth the same amount of enthusiasm as was manifest last year, though this state is probably due to the superiority of the Freshman team, in the case of football at least. Yet there is a growing tendency among upper classmen to disregard class athletics. The football season began with considerable interest, which, however, had almost entirely subsided before the season was half finished. If the final purpose of class athletics is the training of men for Varsity teams, then the football season was at least a success. The Freshmen especially profited by such experience, for, before the end of the season, we find such class men as Wolfe, South, and VVaters regularly on Varsity lists, and XfVilliams, Featherstone, and 'Burton among the most valuable scrubs.', NOP WHS the SCZISOI1 then, a failure for the Sophomores who furnished Prince to the Varsity, besides such worthy Hscrubsl' as Gaddis, Graves, and Hoff- man. Perhaps all Varsity material has been thinned from the class ranks before the junior yearg at any rate, we find among Junior and Seniors no such contributions as were made by the under-classmen. The Juniors- Kuyper, Morrill, McDaniels, and Thomson, and the Seniors-Bellows, Met- calf, and Clifton, all received their class experience as under-classmen. The Freshmen won the championship. Their record was decisive- five games won and one tied, their goal line being uncrossed throughout the season. , ' The basketball series was more exciting, the greater interest coming in the last half of the season, when the Iuniors, after a wonderful improve- ment, brought down the lead of the Freshmen, who started with another rush for the class championship, and finally tied the series. lt was a matter of disappointment that a game could not be arranged to decide the championship which remained a tie between the Juniors and Freshmen. The teams were nearly on a par, and with several exceptions, the games were hotly contested. Although no men were taken directly from class teams for the Varsity, yet they furnished excellent practice for the Var- sity, and many of them will be promising Varsity candidates for next year. The baseball season has hardly begun, so there is nothing but conjec- ture. There isconsiderable activity manifest, however, and the season will doubtless be of interest. ' VV'hether the past year is the beginning of a gradual,decline in class athletics or not depends upon the class spirit of the future classes. That the Varsity teams need men who have had class team experience cannot be denied, but in order to keep up this supply there must be a class enthusiasm not manifest at present which aims for the Class Championship at the be- ginning of the season, and which will follow out this ai1n to the end of the season. Then we shall have interesting class games which will bring out the best there is in the men, who in turn will be of greater service to Varsity teams. 238 Senior Football Ceam.

HE. lines devoted to Academy athletics ought to be printed in different colors. Red, strong, joyful red, for the football season, black, deep, dark black, for the basket ball and at the time of writing it seems as if the only color appropriate for the baseball season might be blue, uncertain, gloomy blue. The Academy athletics have to contend with different kinds of enemies: first, enemies from without, such as the Varsity, which carries off our best, but is withal a gentle enemy, making only one great raid every season, and thereafter being rather good to us, then our friends of other teams who try to snatch the laurel of victory from us and sometimes secure a few leaves: but most and worst of all, the enemy within, the ravages of that terrible disease, flunkitis, to which young persons, like Cads, seem to be most susceptible. Of the many victims and of the sad might- have-beens, what boots it to speak? Financial tangles and woes, why should we mention them? Let the pale spectres walk about, and gibber, and wring their hands-they do not frighten, for we know that time will bring some way to banish them to the pit, and leave us care-free and joyous. There have been many pleasures in the year of athletics, the pleasure of hard work i11 preparation, the pleasure of sturdy effort, the pleasure of the midnight ride from Cleveland on the electric road, tif you don't believe it, ask Shad',j. Then there have been the thrilling experiences, as the wreck at Mansfield with the lingering memory of the meal that was never eaten, or the winning of the basket ball game against Sandusky. And there have been some painful experiences, principally in the teachers' meeting. We haven't won very much this year, but what's the difference? Cred- itable games have been played, the Academy has furnished valuable men to the Varsity, experience has been stored up for future games, and many men have received the physical and mental benefit of good athletic work. Another year the clouds will roll by, and Oberlin Academy will take the place which again and again has been well won, the place of Interscholastic Champions of Ohio. 251 Hcademv football team. 1904 R.

The membership has increased by almost one half over that of last year, and new members will probably be enrolled during the remainder of the spring. Much has been done in pro- moting fresh interest in outdoor sports and in securing the recreation of many who have been cut off from gymnasium work. There are three principal events of the year-the tennis tournament in the fall, the skating contest in the winter, and playing for class championship in basket ball during the spring. l Last fall the four college classes began playing off the tennis tourna- ment, but on account of the cold weather, the finals had to be left until this spring. The association owns four good courts, and it is hoped that even more interest will be shown during the next season. Under the direction of Miss Bissell, '05, the skating season passed off well. For the first time, a silver cup was offered to the winning contestant, and the prospect of gaining this trophy gave zest to those who entered the contest. Each contestant had to pass a preliminary list of events in order to enter the final contest. The programs and much of the coaching were under the supervision of Professor Grover, to whom the association renders many thanks for his unfailing interest. Though a comparatively new and unique event, the skating contest promises to gain in interest and quality every year because of the number of girls who are becoming more and more proficient under the promising opportunities that the association affords. The class teams in basket ball are showing unusual enthusiasm in their practicing this spring. As many as ninety have been enrolled on the teams, and everything points toward a series of match games, close in score and full of spirit. Besides promoting interest in all these sports, the association is slowly increasing the fund for buying and equipping a field, and hopes that it will not be long before the field can be purchased and a greater number of young women reached in the possibilities it will afford. 260 Senior Bdsktlball team.

ANDREW CARNEGIE. Copyright 1905, Pach Bron., N. Y. H DOIIOY. BERLIN has, perhaps, a peculiarly personal gratitude toward the man who gave his help at a time when need came unusually close to the townspeople, to the institution, and to the students individually. Not a few men and women feel that to Mr, Carnegie directly they owe the possi- bility of continuing their college work. It is safe to say that no gift in recent years has so touched the hearts of the students here, or brought from them so spontaneous a response. Aside, too, from the money value of the gift, it has ensured greater confidence in the College the country over. To Oberlin, lVl'r., Carnegie must seem a friend in a far more personal sense than the usual giver of munificent gifts. This personal feeling also permeates our attitude toward the larger material gift for a new library. To the College this brings increased pres- tige, to the students individually it means relief from any limitations that may now be set upon them by insuiiicient space and the lack of necessary books. It is impossible to overestimate the value of this gift from Mr. Car- negie. It strengthens college work at its very center by assuring to all departments adequate library facilities. It means that every department will be able to have the books necessary to do complete and satisfactory Work. No gift could have come to the College that could have meant more toward increasing the effectiveness and raising the standard of the work done here. Mr. Carnegie's interest, fairly aroused, shows itself strong and steady, and Oberlin has reason to be proud of the fact that President King was one of the First trustees chosen by Mr. Carnegie to have charge of the mag- nificent pension fund for the teaching staff of universities, colleges and technical schools. The far-reaching value of each of these gifts, their practical helpful- ness, and the spirit of friendliness which they indicate are a stimulus to the growth of Oberlin in all lines, and make us, in common with many other communities, sincerely grateful to the man whose clear philanthropic mind has 'decreed them-Andrew Carnegie. 271 kf-,zgqm PQI' Hsp fd dd HSIYG. T was the lirst day of school in the little city, and from all the homes in the fourth ward the children were swarming to the school house. Some steps were laggard and some faces were turned back, but in most of them shone the light of school again. A wise school board had set the time for its opening at that critical moment when vacation begins to pall, and the regular work of school begins to appeal as it does in the days of late September. So they came in from the whole ward, full of chat and merriment. The pupils of the third grade were on edge that day. For the last week they had heard their mothers talking about the exclusive Mrs. Far- ringdon, who had come to live on Fourth Avenue, and now they had just seen the principal come in and introduce to their teacher a stylish lady with a boy. The girl in the third seat of the third row leaned across the aisle and whispered to another girl: I'm- sure as you live that he said Mrs. Farringdon ! In a minute it had flown over the school roomg and from every corner industrious eyes surveyed the newcomer. The girls studied the stub nose and the frecklesg the boys glanced patronizingly at the natty suit and the broad white collar, then looked at him again and decided that in spite of these obstacles he might be worth investigating. The teacher looked at the grades at the bottom of his certificate and then glanced over the room. The seats were nearly all taken, but in the second row there was a vacant seat. It occurred to her that this was unusual, but she was glad of it. The silence of inspection had gradually given way to the hum of comment. but the noise stopped as the teacher faced the school. Children, this is Arnold Farringdon. He will sit in the fourth seat of the second row until the seats are assigned. . The gong in the hall sounded and there was a scramble to get-the new books into the desks. Position ! Rise! March ! A tramp of feet as they went out into the court, then a clatter as the more curious came back into the room and stood around in obvious little groups. But Miss Dascomb was perfectly aware of the proceeding and soon they were inspecting the new arrival at clo-se range. W'hen the recess was over and Arnold had taken his new seat, glances of sly amusement kept coming in his direction, or possibly not at him at all. Perhaps it was the seat in front they were looking at, but he could see no reason for it. The seat held a girl of his own age, whose most dis- 273 tinguishing feature was her red hair, gathered into long braids at the back. He had noticed her when he first came into the room, but she had not been one of those who had come back to see him. He had only the general idea that she was pretty, and as he looked at her now, he concluded that her hair was, too. He gave up the attempt to explain the smiles and proceeded to get better acquainted with those with whom he had spoken. In the policy of childhood, learned from their elders, they were nice to him, and he concluded that he would like the room. As he went home from school, several of the boys who lived on his street joined him and soon comments on the day were passing freely. How do you like your seat, Arnold ? asked one of the older boys, one of the fifth row boys, with a grin. Pretty well, Arnold replied, hoping secretly that they would tell him why everybody had stared at it so. Well,,' joined in another, I wouldn't like to sit behind Rachel Mul- doon. Why, she brings the milk for everybody on our street. Didn't you ever see her? Nobody likes her. Perhaps you didn't notice that that was the only vacant seat in three rows. He did remember now what his mother had said about some little girl that brought milk to their house. She had spoken about it to his father at the breakfast table and he had made some slighting remark about the Irish in general. Arnold had forgotten all about it, though. Now it seemed to him that it wasn't quite fair to be down on her simply because she sold milk. He would try to show them that he, at least, could be decent to her. Meanwhile, he would supplement his first impression. The next morning he looked out of the parlor window before break- fast and saw her come up the walk and go to the side door. She certainly was not ugly. When he went to school that morning and she broke her pencil point, he lent her his knife. The next time he was bold enough to sharpen it himself, but a committee of his classmates waited on him after school, with remarks about Mamma's little boy, Hurrah for St. Patrick l and so forth. He straightway proceeded to damage irreparably the knees of his stockings and to disable temporarily the eye of the fifth row boy. Then he was initiated into the circle' of the elect, but he simply lent the knife after that. Public opinion was too strong for him. Nevertheless, he was fast becoming an ardent admirer of the little girl, though in secret she seemed to pay no attention to the slights that were put on 'her in all the mean little ways that children have to express their non- appreciation of their companions. She simply took no notice of them and went ahead with her work as if there were no such things as rude young savages. Arnold happened to see, once or twice, a spark of genuine Irish ' ' 274 temper kindle in her eye, but it was quickly covered up. In contrast with her tormentors she was a perfect lady, and no complaint against her could be found except the fact that she had to work. To the young aristocrats of the fourth ward that was sufficient ground for despising her, and' her moral triumph over them only served to increase their dislike. To Arnold, however, her splendid manner seemed the pink of heroism, and he was nothing if not a hero-worshipper. She reminded him of the Christian martyrs that he had read about in his father's library. School went on through the brisk days of October. If Rachel found a rose tucked among her books and pencils, when all the roses were growing in hot-houses, she did not show it to the other girls. If a shining braid switched across Arnold's desk, he put it back with stern hand, and did not use it for a book mark as the other boys did in similar case. Some of the other boys walked home with the girls, but Arnold joined in with a crowd of hooters, whose sissy, sissy rang down the long streets, in the ears of their weaker comrades. Only once in the long two months up to Thanks- giving did he show any interest in Rachel and that happened thus: He had done his work in school well enough to keep the seat that had been given him. I-Ie had done no more than this. But he had been stirred up by the lessons of the girls who stood ahead of him, and with his usual mannish pride touched to the core, he had buckled down to work for two weeks. Now, when the semi-monthly report was posted, he found that his average was the same as Rachel's. With a jump he turned around and proclaimed the glad fact. The others began to chaff him about his scholar- ship, but finally the fifth row boy asked, Where are you going to sit now, Arnold? ln the same seat with Rachel Muldoon P Arnold came suddenly to earth. Seats in school were assigned accord- ing to scholarship, and a tie was always a bone of contention. He went over to the teacher and asked about it. She thought a moment, then called Rachel to the desk. . Rachel,H she said, Arnold has the same mark as yours for the'last two weeks, so that your two seats would be the same. But you won't mind letting Arnold have your seat, will you? You have had it ever since school opened, and Arnold has worked hard for it. To her amazement Rachel commenced to sob. Piece by piece, the whole of the little tragedy came out. None of the other girls liked her, and the boys called her names. She knew that all of them would make fun of her if she lost her seat. Miss Dascomb was nonplussed. She knew it was true, and yet she remembered that Arnold deserved it. She hardly knew whether she could trust him or not, but at last she said she would leave it to him. Arnold wanted that seat as he had never wanted anything 275 in school before. Here was his chance to establish his scholarship to the confusion of the girls in the first row. But it was also a chance to do something great for Rachel, such as he had often prayed he might have the opportunity to do. In the morning he took his own seat and to- all in- quiries as to whether the teacher had made him do it, he bravely answered UN'O.H ' But still he was not quite satisfied. He wanted to communicate with Rachel, and every avenue seemed closed. In school, the boys would ridicule him if he talked to her, and the teachings of his primary teacher about notes in school had sunk deep. I-Ie could not go home with her for the same reason, and any way, how did he know that she wanted him to? At home he was afraid his father would tease him'about the Irish if he went out to the kitchen at milk time. And boyhood and old age are alike sensitive to ridicule. But one day in November he happened to notice an advertise- ment chalked across the sidewalk in front of an up-town market. It was a simple announcement that the oysters inside the store were the best to be had in town, but to Arnold it meant more than that. Here was a new system of communication with seemingly boundless. possibilities. He quietly appropriated some chalk the next time he was sent to the board and one could desire no better blackboard than the stone walk in front of his home. The next morning he was in the parlor window, behind the curtain, when Rachel brought the milk. He saw her look down at the sidewalk and then quickly up at the house and knew that she understood. For the night before, in careful lettering, he had written across the sidewalk the legend: Rachel Muldoon is a good girl. I-Ie had thoughtthat this would show her that some one appreciated her, even if the rest of the world did not. The next morning it read : Rachel Muldoon is a nice girl 3 and on the third it had become: Rachel is a pretty girl. It seemed to him that there was a new light of recognition in her eyes when he met her on the stairs that morning, but he could not tell. He could simply keep on taxing his brain for new praises to inscribe upon his stony valentine. Two days before Tlianksgiving it began to snow,-not a blizzard, but the aggravating fall that suggests perpetual motion. It fell lightly all through the afternoon and the old men began to recount the Thanksgiving days within their memory when it had snowed. By the next morning, three or four inches of fluff lay on the ground, and Arnold lazily watched the maid drive it to this side and to that with regular sweeps of the broom. He was thinking that it was pretty cowardly to pay these attentions to Rachel on the sly. He ought to let people know that he liked her, but it was hard to do. He was sure that if he started talking to her once, as he did to other I 276 girls, he could keep it up. But it would be dreadfully hard to start, and he was trying to think of some way to do it. Just then Rachel came along with her bottles on her hand sled. She spoke to the maid and went into the house. But she had done her part. Thanksgiving morning was bright and clear. But snow lay on the front walk. Mrs. Farringdon had readily consented to let Arnold take the maid's place, and a few minutes before breakfast, in leggings and mittens, he began brushing off the snow. A cautious glance stole up and down the street. No, none of the other boys were so ambitious. He glanced up the street again. Someone was coming and he hurried on his work. As he reached the sidewalk, he glanced up nonchalantly. A pair of blue eyes looked into his, and this time there was no doubt of their recognition. He straightened up with a happy laugh and looked into them again. I-Iello,', he said simply, and she returned the greeting. But she under- stood. It was their first word of comradeship, and it was Thanksgiving Day. ' 2 ffm f rf e V 277 HI Kdflldk.

Messenger I pray you all give your audience And hear this matter with reverence, By figure at moral play. The Summoning of Everyman called it is, And seeketh to express The transitoriness Of all our bluff-bought happiness. The story saith: Man in the beginning Look Well, and take heed to the ending Be you never so gay.

Give audience and hear what he doth say. ' The Faculty Speaketh I now perceive that my authority Is vain, and Everyman regards me not, The students pass the days in revelry And what they should recite, they have forgot. I see the more that I am kind The worse they be, the less they mind. I offer mercy, but they scorn the gift. I freely grant reviews, they still make shift To do without them, so my planning is To have a reckoning of Everyman's person. For if I leave the students thus alone, Verily, they will become much worse than now. 279 Test : Faculty : Test : Everyman : Test : Everyman Test : Everyman Test : Everyman Test : Everyman Test: Needs I must on them do justice, On Everyman living without fear.

Throughout the College I will give no peace, I'll cruelly out-search both sharks and geese. Lo, yonder I see Everyman walking. Full little hc thinketh on my coming. His mind is on Co-cds and parties And great pain I shall cause him. Everyman, stand still, whither art thou going Thus gaily? I am sent to thee. What, sent to me? Yea, certainly, For though thou hast the Faculty forgot, The Faculty forgetteth not, As ere I depart thou shalt know. What desireth the Faculty? A reckoning.

The horse hair ring which she had found in the blue memory book in her old trunk made Josephine think-of it all as it had happened. She and Helen had been chunis of the inseparable, intense kind, when they were in high school together. She smiled now when she remembered the plays they used to have together-the long afternoons up in Helen's garret, when they read Grimm's fairy tales, and then curled up in the corner with their arms around each other, while they ate apples diligently, and planned what they would do if they had the wonderful wishing gift which was described in their favorite story. Oh, the candy' mines, the lemonade fountains, the orchards where dolls, grew, the gorgeous velvet gowns the color of moon- light that swept the rloor for yards behind one, the brilliant iewels, the heaps of treasure which one found by pressing a secret spring which led to a secret corridor down which one was guided by the dim torch of an ugly little dwarf, who kept watch over the hoards of the earth! Then there were the terrible quarrels, which had really not been so bad, after all, because the making up was so nice. It was on the occasion of one of these make, ups that Helen had given her the ring, and they had solemnly vowed never, never to quarrel again, and that they would love each other always. With great solemnity Helen had put the ring on her finger while, Josie had repeated after her the funny old words. Aspthey grew a little, older, the vows of friendship had become ever more intense, the confidences more fre- quent, if possible, and both were firmly convinced that neither life, nor fate, nor principalities, nor men, could part them. She remembered the time when with mighty dignity and touching importance Helen had told her, out behind the grape arbor, that she was in love. That she could neither eat nor sleep Cpeople in love never couldj, and how bravely she had refrained from eating the ice cream soda that Uncle jack oHered them soon after- 289 wards. Helen had always been consistent. Then there had been gradua- tion, when she and Helen were both on the program-both wore their first long dresses--and when the world suddenly became solemn to them both, as they took the white rolls in their hands, and realized that for all the flowers and fun, this was really the end of one part of their lives. The real twinge, however, came next fall when Josephine went to an Eastern college, and Helen stayed on at home, to continue the old work, and the old fun, while her friend went to explore new fields. During the blue, homesick weeks when Josephine was being initiated into the round of a big college, where one small girl was very small, letters flew back and forth with incredible frequency, and both girls were sure that nothing would change the feeling between them. But when a whole year had passed, and the college world was more joy, less mystery and strangeness to Jose- phine, when fascinating new interests, new and different friends, and a wider work than anything she and Helen had dreamed of had come to fill her mind, she went home with a different feeling, too, and the good times of the summer vacation were not unmixed with a strangeness, born of the divided interests which the year had brought them. There had been three years since then, and finally Helen had married and gone to a distant city to live: her wedding had come in the middle of the year, when Josephine could not attend itg she had been off on a lake trip with college friends, when Helen made her first visit at home. Helen had been too busy with her new household experiences to write often. Josephine had been busy, too, and she sometimes felt that accounts of the college round of work which was her life interest bored Helen's more practical soul. The corre- spondence had dwindled from monthly to semi-annual letters, and now, thought Josephine, as she sat fingering over the old childish memory book, 'it had been months since she had even wondered how Helen was getting on. There had never been a shade of difficulty between them, never any visible neglect on either sideg they had somehow grown in diverging directions, that was allg and as naturally as the passing of days, they had slipped out into new lives so very different in their character that each forgot the other. The old horse-hair ring brought back an echo of the lost feeling, and with a sudden half-made resolution, Josephine hurried to her desk, and began to write. But the half dozen sheets which she quickly covered were filled with reminiscences of early good times, and now when she tried to bring herself up to an interest in Helen's present self and sur- roundings, she suddenly stopped, chewed her pen, stared out of the window, and frowned. She fussed away a half an hour so, then finally she scrawled a few linesin which she stifiiy asked about Helen's husband and the children, and dashed off the schedule of courses she intended to take the coming - 290 semester. It did not come easily, and when she had read it over she signed it with the collegiate Iosephine,i' not the old-time Josie as she had planned to do. She read the letter through once more slowly, lovingly dwelling on the first part, hurrying to be through with the forced endingg then after thinking a moment, she tore the thing into shreds, and dropped it into the long suffering waste basket, which was crammed with half- finished essays, psychological outlines and old chemistry notes. She looked at the fragments regretfully, but she was laughing in a moment at her heroic attempts at inquiring after the babies, and when she thought how edified Helen would be with the list of philosophical and literary studies she meant to take, she left off staring at the bits of paper, and went to dump the whole waste basket in the furnace. After all, it was not a hurtg they were not children any more, that was all. But yet, and yet- Someone called her to dinner. It was josephineis last day at home before the opening of her senior college year, and there was no more time to be spent in sentimental musing. p Josephine Lambert is the one, of course, said Carrie Hillis, as the girls lounged in her room, sipping chocolate, and talking over the election to occur the next day. She'll get on that grand air, along with her cap and gown, and the eloquence will fairly fall from her lips. I tell you she's a wonder, a credit to the class, a regular walking,-oh, I say girls, she's just a dear.. Do vote for her--come on. There isn't a thing the matter with her except that she's been a bit of a grind, and no one who ate her gorgeous VVelsh rabbit last night can find it in her heart to say a word on that score. Heres to her-Josephine Lambert for the Heliogabalus- XfVhoop jug--I love theelu And Carrie gave her nearest neighbor an un- comfortable dash of hot cocoa in the fervor of her enthusiasm. Hurrah for our side ! called out Jess McCloud from her perch on the table. - So say we all of us ! came from another corner. Go get her, said some one else, and a few moments later when two of the girls marched Josephine into the room, she was met with a wild mixture of cheers and pillows, hugs and cocoa, while one and all tried to explain that tomorrow the unanimous vote of the girls would go for Josephine Lambert to hand down to the junior president the lighted candle called the Heliogabalus, tied with the colors of classes for years back, while she made the dignified speech of farewell from the Seniors to the Juniors, andadmonished the safe keeping of the light which was to guide' their feet in the path of learning. - 291 Josephine did look grand when she did the honors of the Helio- gabalus, and the intent silence that greeted her earliest good-bye to the Juniors told plainly that Carrie's prophecy about her eloquence had not failed to materialize. Miss Wilder, the head of the philosophy department, thought her rather grand, too, as she sat in her private reception hall, listening to the plans of her favorite pupil. I never can thank you enough for all that you have been to me in these four years,', Josephine concluded gratefully You have made me really think: you have given me a clear glimpse into what scholarship may be. You have given me a passion for books-I mean to go on and make them more and more my own. I am going West for a few months' visit with an old friend of father's, to recu- perate, he says. I suppose I mn tired, and this will make me strong and ready for my study abroad next year. The doctor of philosophy looked at her a bit quizzically, through her eye- glasses. My dear, she said kindly, I wonder if you are quite sure about all this-quite sure? Will not other things, other interests come? I-Iave you entirely made up your mind that here is the summum bonum P Yes, said Josephine, nodding happily, and as she packed her beloved books that night, she dreamed of foreign study and travel, research and writing, and of the day when perhaps, jwmflzafvs she might come back to the dear old College, and stand in the ranks of that much revered body, the college faculty The good-byes to the girls and the college customs, the familiar old library, her dormitory, the farewell talks about the things to come, the final wrench of leaving the dear, comfortable, bookish, little world. with its four years' fence around it-all this came hard, and Josephine felt that some of her must be staying behind in the little old room at the dorm as she took the west-bound train. But she thought of the trunk of books, then of her well loved plansg she hugged them to her and smothered the ache of the changing now in glad hopes for the college supplement to come. The extreme East and the extreme West are very' far apart. Josephine thought so, as she looked about the large, painfully roomy chamber which had been given her for hers and wondered how she would keep from getting lost in it. She had thought so when her father's old friend brought her from the station, behind his doubtful looking, but very swift, horses. The rate at which they had swung around corners had been a trifie alarming, and the almost boisterously good-natured way in which he had called out a frequent Hallo to the people he met, was-well, unusual. One didn't like even t0 flziuk discourteous things about oneis host. ' ' 292 It was not a wild Indian place, where cowboys, bulfaloes and lynching ran to romantic confusiong there was nothing in the least disorderly or savage in her surroundings. Aye, there was the homesick rub. Had she found herself in a land which she might have called barbarous, the story book side of it would have appealed to her at once. But here was a very ordinary sort of town, with modern conveniences, with none of the dis- tinctive 'Western features that she had thought of, except the prairie, which made of the town a kind of island. But the prairie was only the big sur- rounding circle, the Westerii town and the Westerii people were at hand. Josephine was present at the reception given to the minister who had lately come to take charge of the largest church of the town. The reception, she had been told, was as formal an affair as ever came to Burchard, and Josephine went, attired accordingly, body and mind. People stared at her: not unkindly, but with a good-nature-d, unashamed amusement, that sent her to the most convenient corners to stare back at the joking' crowd, who played games and exchanged stories like hearty children. Everyone stayed until an unearthly hour, and the affair ended in a grand dance where old and young took part. The going home occurred all at once, and Jose- phine suddenly found herself before her hostess, trying to offer the con- ventional remark about having enjoyed herself. But either the embarrass- ment of the on-looking crowd, or her saving sense of the fitness of things, made her seize the woman's hand warmly, and say in an odd effort at doing as the Romans do, I-1've had a grand good time-and-and I'd like to know you people. She had lived through the reception CJosephine smiled at the wordj with tolerable grace, though she had spent more than half the evening in feeling foolish, but when she began to know the people a little, her Eastern soul rebelled. They scandalized her to the limit of consternation 5 she amused them to the point of hysterics, with l1er set notions about the pro- priety of things. Sometimes an unwilling compromise came on one side, sometimes on the other. On a few occasions, there was an open clash, and Josephine remained at home in dignilied respectability, while the other young people went on their chaperonless larks. It all culminated in Newt Halstead, who had lately come from the mines. I-le was a big, gruff fellow, who had a bit of experience to tell from almost every part of the XfVest. Unpolished, but good-looking, and well blessed with common sense, Josephine wrote in her letters to Carrie I-Iillis. But oh ye gods, she went on, what would you girls say to see me taking numerous drives with this man who has never' been east of Nebraska, who calls me 'little girl' in open admiration, and in whose life chaperonage has never found a place? The ghost of the Dean of VVO-men appears to me nightly in my sleep. 293 She's an uncommon one, that girl, said Newt to Sam Beedle, his fellow man on the ranch outside of town. Uncommon pretty, assented Sam. Aw--no-I don't mean that, said Newt hesitatingly. Cf course she's pretty-but that's not the point. Clever, then P Well-y-e-e-s, said Newt doubtfullyg I guess that's it, but it's a queer kind. Know we're going to Ridgeville tomorrow night to see Ham- let? We've been reading it. Well, she acted the queerest. She said a lot about liking plays. When I was over at Ridgeville Wednesday I saw the bills for the one that's to be given in their new town hall. I explained to her where Ridgeville was-twenty-five miles from here, and the road not very plain, but how my team could make it in good time, and how we could sce the play and get home before daylight all right, if she didn't mind losing a little sleep. Well, do you know, she gave a kind of a gasp, and said, 'Why-why-she didn't knowf I was just dumbfounded, and I looked it, and I said, 'Why I thought yonid like to see it.' And then she seemed sorry again, and she said, 'I would-I would-Newt, but, but- pcrhaps we could get Mrs. Wade to go with us.' I just looked at her. 'What in creation do you want with Mrs. IfVade? There won't be room in the buggy, and she'll be in the way, anyway. If she wants to go to the play, why doesn't her husband take her ?' 'Oh,. I don't mean that,' she said, 'but you see, it is so far-and so late-and-' 'Afraid? Do you think I'm not big enough to take care of you ?' I said, letting her see that I felt offended. 'And if you can't trust me to bring you safe across the prairie, my team will do it-anybody'1l tell you that.'- I felt too cnt up to say any more, and I just sat and looked at her and wondered what kind of a man she would trust. She seemed to feel queer, too, for she looked as if she would cry with not knowing what to do. Finally she stood up and said, as if she'd just made up her mind to kill some one-'it's good of you to ask me-I'd like to go,-and I 'will.' Now what there was about a plain drive over to Ridgeville, to see a good play, that would stir up all that rumpus, I don't see. For all the smile she gave me, I couldn't feel just straight-couldn't see why she should be ashamed to go with me. So I said, 'See here, Jo QI've taken to calling her that, to her face, did it by mistake the first time, and she seemed shocked, but kind of pleased, I thought, and it's so much easier, I've kept it upj there's one thing I want to ask you, jo, and please tell me the truth. Do you want Mrs. Wade yourself P And I felt some better when she laughed and said, 'No, I don't.' 294 Sam grinned. Newt, he said, do you know what my advice to you is? Keep a stiff upper lip and don't get faint hearted. You're getting on. Josephine never forgot the wonderful afternoon drive. Often she had tried to describe the prairie in her letters East. It is unthinkably big and wonderful, she would tell them. It is one great, lonely monotone, that is sometimes terrible in its depression, again marvelously large in its wide free sympathy. The prairie is beautiful-beautiful. Today it stretched out on every side of them, bright with its dress of wild flowers, so big and so tranquil, that Josephine wondered if the bustling world outside were not all a dream. She tried to voice the feeling that it all gave her, it sent her to books for the expression of it, and she quite forgot that her companion might not be appreciating all that she said. But when she suddenly stopped, afraid that she had been rude, he said, with a si11cerity that touched her: I have lived on the prairie, and I don't get the surprise out of it that you do, and I haven't read so many things that say it for me. But I don't think I could live without the long breath that a man can get here. I think I love it the way a man loves his father and motherf' For every piece of book information that she had to offer, he had a corre- sponding bit of life, and for her every theory, an experience. Newt seemed to lose the puzzled, constrained feeling that so often annoyed him when he talked with her, and she found this supplementing of each other's world very interesting. As they neared the town, both were silent for a while. Newt was wondering, with the humility of a genuine love, whether there could be any-- thing in him in the least worthy of her. Josephine was thinking of a letter she had written to Carrie Hillis, a few days before. I'm actually afraid of falling in love with him, though how I can consider anything so absurd, no mortal knoweth. He would shock you to death, dear. And so you and your mother will spend the winter in California? I'm wondering if you can't stop and see me, as you go through? I shall polish up for your coming, and have things as proper as may be, if you will. Sometime next month, did you say? Do try to manage it. And after all, I think you'll like Mr. Halstead. She remembered the twinge of conscience with which she wrote Mr, Halstead and thought Newt, and she felt ashamed now of her rather patronizing way of representing him to her friend. After all, she thought, I wonder if we Easterners aren't well endowed with what Miss Wilder used to call 'a colossal conceit'? Newt is a gentleman, for all his odd ways. Hamlet was very fairly done and Josephine enjoyed the performance to the utmost. She and Newt discussed it enthusiastically between acts. As the people rose at the end of the last scene, Josephine heard some one say, 295 Not so bad, for a little Western town, but ah, do you remember the last time we saw it in Boston P Newt, Newt, whispered Josephine, clutching at his arm, Do you see that girl innthe brown coat--there-beside that gray-haired woman- look-five seats ahead? She's Carrie I-lillis. Oh my goodness me ! Well, that's jolly now, isn't it? he said heartily. If we sit right here, we can stop them as they go by. A1'cu't you glad you came? Josephine didn't know whether she was glad or not. She foresaw com- plications which did not enter into the honest soul of Newt. The crowd moved slowly, by the time Mrs, Iflillis and her daughter came within reach, Josephine had decided that, after all, it was best that Carrie should have come to bring her back to her senses. lt would never have done, she had been unaccountably foolish. Carrie was showering questions upon her, and trying to tell her how they had come West earlier than they had expected, had been obliged to wait over night in Ridgeville, never dreaming that it was so near Flurchardg and had come full of curiosity to hear a Western performance of Hamlet. 4 - You must come home with me, and stay at least a day or two. A11d you'll find the prairie ride grand, in the moonlight-oh, now you'll see what the prairie is like. Surely we can manage it, Newt PM In her enthusiasm she had forgotten some things. No trouble at all, Jo, he said promptly. I'll just leave the single buggy here .and hitch the team to a surrey, and we're fixed. Carrie began to look queer, Mrs. I-Iillis' face took on a pained I told you so expression, and when Newt had left them in the little hotel parlor, while he went to get the horses, she saw that her sin was deep in the eyes of her friends. She had meant to be lnunble, to acknowledge that she had committed an unpardonable breach of etiquette, and thus to be done with the whole Halstead affair. But when Mrs. I-Iillis began to talk in her gentle, shocked way, straightway the soul of Josephine rose in revolt, and in a moment she found herself defending her conduct with a spirit that she herself could not understand. But my dear Josephine,-a twenty-five mile drive-alone with this man-in the small hours of the night. I can't help it, Josephine said hotly. It's different out here, it is different, and you'll see it differently when you have been away from the East awhile. Sh-here comes Newt. You'll see how he can talk before we get home, do treat him well, anyway, for my sake. I hope 1,111 always courteous, said Mrs. I-Iillis with dignity, and poor Josephine subsided, angry, hurt, and wishing the Hillises well back in Bos- ton. The ride home was torture. She found l'lC1'SClf suffering with Newt ' 296 whenever they addressed him, and he, after one or two attempts at cordiality towards Jo's friends, attended to his horses and left the three to talk of college affairs. Josephine tried frantically to draw him into the conversa- tion, but it was all to no purpose, and when at last, at last, he set them down in front of the house, she said a half angry, half amused good night and led the two women in with a mighty resolve in her heart. She and Carrie discussed the matter until dawn and it was truly funny to hear her heroic attempts at reconciling the old and new sides of her life. And all this means- said Carrie at last. It meansf' said Josephine, with the old-time dignity that had worn the cap and gown so well, It means-that I'll marry him tomorrow if he asks me. . Then may heaven prevent his asking you ! said Carrie tragically. But heaven was on Jo's side. Letters, Jo dear. Come and sit by the tire to read them, while I help the youngsters with their snow fort. They like to have the dadda in their fun. Newt dropped the letters in her lap, and a kiss on her forehead, and ran to romp for half an hour with the two boys. Jo read her three letters three times through, then she smiled and talked to the fire. I have no doubt Carrie's professor is a great man. Then after a moment, Miss Wilder is a dear soul, it was good of her to say 'lim glad you found hap- piness'-instead of-'I told you so.' She opened the third letter again. After all, Helen wrote, I believe the heart of our old fairy tales has come true-we are both so happy. Sometimes I ache for the old things, but oh Josie, Josie, aren't you glad that the growing-up process has at last ended in such good new things F Josephine turned toward the pretty case which held her college text books. She handled them tenderly, and thought lovingly of the Josephine that had been. She looked at Miss Wilcler's letter again, and thought, a little sadly, of the Josephine that might have been She loved them both, but they had slipped from her, somehow, were quite gone. The children came stamping into the hall, eager to tell her about the big, big snow ball that dadda had helped them roll. 'When she tucked them into their bed that night, and left them with her good-night kiss, she held each little hand lovingly for a minute. And as she went slowly down stairs to where her husband sat, she whispered to her- self, I don't know when, or how, or why they went, but oh Ilm thankful for the happiness of the Josephine that is. But she's had as hard a time 'becoming' as the ancient Greeks themselves. Coming, Jo? Yes, comiugf' and she was smiling when she parted the parlor curtains.

VOL. I. JUNE 17, 1904. No. 1. Economic Statement for 1904-1905. A glance at the accompanying chart will, l' trust, interest the stu- dent of economic problems in this statement. The variations across the first line of the chart are self- explanatory. Consumption of corduroy having been slight and highly specialized has no great economic significance, and need not be treated here. Business communication with Virginia and her sister states has been almost destroyed by the slight demand for tobacco. Trade is at a standstill, starvation hangs immi- nent in the once sunny Southern sky. The one good man who could avert the distress is powerless in the hands of his enemies. Can the South but hold out until June 29th, 1905, her people may continue to live, and the bonny brown weed pour into Toledo and all the North. It has been particularly difficult to get statistics as to the consump- tion of Peter's Chocolate. The one figure quoted on the chart is but ap- proximate. Professor Juxley, who has done research work along this line, claims that in a college of fif- teen hundred students one out of every five goes to Cleveland on an average of once in six weeks. Of these students, he has seen all but oneik in juxtaposition with the Peter's Chocolate shop fnext door to the Euclid Avenue Opera Housej. Finding that the average amount withdrawn from the bank by students about to make the trip is 352500, and deducting 551.25 for carfare and meals, he secures the following table: 36 weeks in the school year. 6 trips in the school year. 300 people. 1800 trips made by people. 1800 trips at 323.75 equals 342,- 75o.oo. Forty-two thousand seven hun- dred and fifty dollars for Peter's Chocolate,-an expense to be re- gretted in the face of such a poorly- supported, worthy object as the Col- lege W0man's Athletic and Field Association.

Hubert Lowiston in his youth loved Clara Dale Willow, the daughter of his father's friend. In her eighteenth year Clara Dale became silent and melancholy and finally announced to Hubert her inten- tion of taking the nurses' training course. At this, Hubert Lowiston strikes from his arm the beautiful white hand that had rested there so confidingly, and cries out involun- tarily the lines so familiarly a part of his college life: Go get thee to a nunnery, go. Clara Dale falls fainting against some ferns in her father's yard. Hubert, unwilling to face the consequences of his mad act and words, flees along the graveled path which leads from the WiIlow's country home to the State road. He encounters no opposition, but when he is well along the road, a taper- ing white hand stretches out in front of his face, and the voice of Clara Dale Willow sighs in his ear. The hand vanishes, the voice ceases. Chapter XI. I-IUBERT LOWISTON,S NATUIUE CHANGES. lt was true that the hand had vanished and that the voice had ceased, but Hubert's heart sank within him. His eyes still blinked convulsively, and he cleared an imaginary huskiness from his parched throat. It would have been apparent to the most unobservant, unsympathetic com-panion-of-the- way that the young fellow was under the shadow of some hideous experience, something that would change his whole nature, and for- evermore rob life of the sweet efful- gence of the college curriculum Hubert sat down upon a stone. He laid his head upon his arm and wept bitterly, not as the child nor as one upon whom physical sufferings has set its stamp, but as ia man in an agony of intellectual horror. One might have believed that all six of the jaws of Cerberus were fastened upon him, He fingered his collar nervously, and absent-mindedly laid his watch down in the grass. Without in any sense realizing what he was doing, he ate feverishly one bit of sen-sen after another, then indifferently dropped the empty little envelope in the ditch at his side. Poor boy! He was usually so thoughtful. ' About his brows and cheeks there hovered an ashy pallor. And again he saw the tapering white hand of Clara Dale Willow quiver in the hot summer air before his eyes, again the voice of Clara Dale Willow was sighing its omin- ous hideous words at his ear. Then the hand vanished, the voice ceased. fTo be continued.l jl STORIETTE Sentient. Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood rang for her maid. Anna, she said dryly, tell my daughter that I wish to talk with her. Anna inclined her head respect- fully and withdrew. Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood was in her own drawing-room. The paint- ed mermaids along the sea-green walls, the dragon design above the fireplace, were her own idea. The mahogany furniture and soft Per- sian tapestries were her own. She it was who paid the bill that sent the electric light streaming blue and green and golden from the parti- colored chandeliers. Mr. Leywood had never interested himself in Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood's property. I-Ie had not interested himself in Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood herself for a score or so of years. Not that they did not love each other devotedly, but that the turmoil of life, the needs of society, the clamor of the stock exchange, and lastly, the crowded orientalism of Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood's mansion, had gradually left slack the cord of sympathy, which bound them to- gether some thirty years ago. Mrs. Fitzhugh Leywood was reading Stevenson. A slender girl with azure eyes and golden hair and floating white evening dress stepped gracefully and lightly into the room. Mrs. Fitzhugh raised her lorg- nette and observed her daughter, not unkindly. Clemencia, she interrogated, Mr, Grenoway has spoken ? A faint flush overspread Clemen- cia's face. She bowed her head in acquiescence. And you? -the mother waited for an answer. Mother, during his freshman year in college he wore a red flan- nel shirtg this grossness might re- turn with the advancing yearsg I could not-love himg I told him sog he has gone abroad.

Blinkins was roused from his painful reverie by a wild rush and beating of hoofs. Before he knew it, a lean broncho was pulled up on its haunches close beside him,-and he felt his hat lifted from his head. When he realized what had hap- pened, he saw before him a girl, sitting a vicious little broncho, with a delicious vigor and alertness. She was dressed in the conventional buckskin trousers and sombrero of the plains, and in her hand she held a whip, at whose tip waved Blink- ins' hat. She was laughing dc- liciously. ' Reckon you're a stranger, she said cordially. III. Merciful heaven,-how he loved her! The pulsing wheels of the train which he had just left sang his love to him. I-Iow beautiful, how childlike, how deliciously free and young she was! IV. It was two days after Blinkins' arrival. The marvelous air of the plains had .already breathed new life into him. He was riding a broncho beside Juanita,-the girl who had so daintily removed his hat on the day of his coming. Suddenly, away under the hori- zon, there appeared a cloud. 4 V. Yes, it was Indians,-some Hfty in a painted, shrieking mob. I-Iow was Blinkins to rescue the exquisite creature at his side? Escape was impossibleg he must fight. The beautiful girl, too, was braced for an encounter. VVith a yell, Blinkins drew his penknife and aluminum matchsafe and dashed forward. The bravcs drew backg he heard their leader cry, A charm! It is en- chanted ! In another instant they were gone. VI. Ifle bent over the fair, swooning Juanita with passionate words. VVould she regain consciousness? VII. A quivering breath passed her marble lips. He stooped to 'catch the words her adored lips seemed to frame.

This exceedingly valuable fragment we have seen fit to print entire: .1. . And l slept and dreuned and behold, I stood in a great, dark room. And I heard a voice in the midst of the room and I turned to see the one that spake. And being turned I saw a maiden sitting. Her head and her hairs upon her head were black as ebon, her eyes were as a flame of fire, and she was clothed in a vesture dipped in dye. And on her brow was a strange double in- scription, which by translation means Theme Corrector. And I drew near, and, behold, around her were piled many hundred scrolls. And in her hand she held a pen which she dipped in a strange red fluid, and she marked the scrolls before her with many strange red marks. And she spake in a low, sad voice, and these were the Words which she spake: 'In these days many seek death away from their themes, and find it not and desire to die because of their Monday themes, and death Heeth from them. And I looked, and lo, in her hand the maiden held a scroll which bore my name. And I saw that when she had read it, she placed but one inscription upon it, and it was like unto an A. And when I saw it, I fell at her feet as one dead. And she laid her right hand upon me, saying unto me, 'Fear not, that is the first and the last.' And I awoke and, behold, it was a dream.

Moral: Seniors, endow a danc- ing school for your Instructors, l E THE P BLIC EYE. Peg-top Trousers. VVonders never cease and lllllllilll nature is unfathomable. Just as tl1e race appears to be civilized, it re- lapses into some new expression of barbarism. You n1ay call these re- lapses freaks, fads, or what you will,--you cannot stop them. The latest freak of human nature is peg- tops. The peg-top is a hollow object 111ade of a tl1ick, tough, vegetable membrane, tl1e outer surface of wl1ich is striated with small ridges. This 111en1brane is flexible, so that a prop inside is necessary to keep the peg-top properly distended. Wfhen standing upright in its nor- mal condition, tl1is freak of nature resembles two inverted cones joined at tl1e larger end and from three to four feet i11 length. At tl1e apex of each cone is an opening, surrounded by a broad collar or llange, a11d from six to ten inches in tllZlI'l1CilCl'. At the upper end is a tl1ird and larger ope11i11g, on the edges of XVl1lCi1 are six or more small con- trivanees for hanging tl1e peg-top upon its prop. Two pairs of pouches opening to the exterior are situated 11ear tl1e top, one pair on tl1e sides, the other pair on tl1e back. The or- dinary prop is l'llllCl1 s111aller i11 diameter tllllll the cavity of tl1e peg- top, but is I'lll.lCl1 longer and pro- trudes from tl1e tl1ree ope11i11gs. Normally, the space between thc prop and the inner surface of the peg-top is inllated with air. This inflation is easily accon1plisl1ed by n1ea11s of two long projections which are attached to tl1e sides of tl1e prop and may be inserted in the side pouches in such a way as to ex- pand the cavity inside. Two colors have been produced so far 3 greenish yellow,-which is the IUOYC COIN- mon,-and purple, tl1e specimens of which are about a dozen in number. and whose props are called the dirty dozen. 'lixperiments are be- ing tried and variegated SlJCCll11Cl1S are expected soon. l l1ave been informed tl1at in Buf- falo, where these curiosities are al- most unknown, two exa111ples of the greenish-yellow variety produced great excitement.

It will perhaps be a matter of in- terest and certainly of surprise to the public at large to learn of the exceedingly busy and complicated life of some of its most popular so- cial leaders. It is probable that in the mind of the general public who merely attend social affairs, there is no conception of the immense labor which makes such pleasant occa- sions possible. For instance, it would probably not occur to most Oberlin people that the charming and popular young woman, Miss Clara Cavell, instead of being a queen of society, is really society's slave. The enterprising reporter for this periodical has gathered statis- tics concerning the number of com- mittees of which Miss Cavell has been a member, and has brought to light the astonishing fact that Miss Cavell has belonged to no less than five social committees simultaneous- ly. It is evident that her life must be largely a matter of committee meetings. It is well known that Miss Cavell finds large committees not so efficient and satisfactory as small ones to which she cheerfully gives many hours in the Talcott of- fice, engaging in conversation of the most earnest and telling character. It is only another indication of the strenuous nature of modern life, when a young woman who should be as free as a butterfly is so bur- dened with affairs that it is almost impossible for her to find any time to see any one but her fellow com- mitteemen. i Impressionistic. We have all heard the beautiful lines: 'Let the lower lights be burning, Send a gleam across the wave, Some poor struggling, fainting sin- ner, We may rescue, we may save.' p ,,5'g.f, Particularly touching since Bliss, the composer, perished in the wat- ers of the Ashtabula river, on the night of the memorable Ashtabula disasterg and just as this name with its rich connotation of exquisite songs, stirs our spiritual nature, so the name Perry makes our souls glow with patriotism. 'Don't give up the ship' we think with throb- bing hearts, and gaze at one another too moved for words. I take pleas- ure in introducing Bliss Perry. The president of the Union Li- brary Association bowsg Bliss Perry bows. lThunderous applause.l Thus during a year too soon ended has the grand old First Church been shaken six times. THE STAGE. All-Shakespeare Play. There is much talk nowadays about the degeneracy of the stage, and perhaps we are justified in our cynical and sad-eyed references to the good old days when acting was an Art. A long ray of light, how- ever, was cast across this dark slough of despair by the production last night of the All-Shakespeare play by the universally famous stars of the Oberlin Faculty Stock Coni- pany. The performance was cer- tainly a death-blow to the croakers who lament that Shakespearean drama is no longer a financial pos- sibility, for the vast auditorium in Sturges Hall was packed to the last seat in the peanut gallery, and S. R. O. signs were set up before five o'clock.i': A glance at the cast will con- vince all who follow the world be- hind the footlights that the play was a success. We were all inter- ested to see what Arletta Abbott would put into Ophelia,-a role that seems to us eminently fitted to her personality and talents. The inter- pretation was faultless, and Miss Abbott threw herself into the part with all the verve and sympathy that so strongly characterize her 'ltln accordance with a laudable Oberlin custom, the play began at 5 545- work. The acme of perfection was reached in the drowning scene, where the tragic Hoating away of Miss Abbott's eyeglasses gave a touch of realism that moved the house deeply. The acting deserves unalloyed and enthusiastic praise. We shall be interested to see Miss Abbott's reading of Katherine in the Tllillllllg of the Shrew, which, we believe, she is to play to Henry S. Huntington, Jrfs, Petruchio. Mr. Hall's Othello, too, was be- yond reproach. The character is ad- mirably adapted to Mr. Hall's tem- perament and previous histrionic training. The true scholarliness of the reading of the lines was a de- light. We are inclined to feel that Mr. Hall allowed his passion to run away with his artistic sense in the magnificent situation where he kills Desdemona in the midst of the scene of Lady Macbeth's sleep- walking. This is a situation prob- ably unrivalled in the archives of dramatic literature. Mr. Hall seems on a fair way to become a matinee hero. Great things were expected of Mr. C. H. Adams Wager's Corio- lanus. The peculiar fitness of Mr. Wager for the part was patent to everyone, hut, on the whole, we were somewhat disappointed in the presentation. Mr. Wager's rendi- tion lacked that deep, intimate ac- quaintance which this truly difficult THE STAGE. 311 part requiresg there was a certain lack of the scholarly quality,-a cer- tain immaturity of conception. Mr. Wager is still very young, however, and there is the possibility of great improvement. Perhaps the most attractive bit of Shakespearean dramatic humour ever seen in Oberlin was Mr. Cas- key's Malvolio. We cannot hope to see anything comparable to the cross-gartering scene as acted by Mr. Caskey. We predict tremen- dous success for this young actor in this line of workg his style already shows that delicious mellowness that only comedians of the highest rank ever attain. The lesser parts were all well ren- dered. Harry J. Smith,--always a favorite--made a charming little page. Miss Wickwire's Lady Mac- beth and Mr. Mosher's Richard III. are especially deserving of praise. GRAND Ol'EliA PARLORS, ORERLIN, February 30, 1905. Richard III ........ W1r.r.

While this production has eclipsed for the time all other dra- matic effort, we are pleased to see that stage life in Oberlin is at a strong How. Mr. MacLennan-of Pinafore fame-is making a phe- nomenal reputation for himself as Lord High Executioner in an all- star revival of the Mikado Mr. Juan de Jonas fin real life M r. George Mjonesj, whose photo we print in another column, and who is kept rather prominently in the Public Eye, is, we hear, to leave the legitimate for vaudeville next season. A new dramatic light is appear- ing in the person of Mr. James Luckey, a young man from Austra- lia, who has been touring in the provinces during the past season. He has made a great hit as the Tin Man in the recent revival of the Wizard of Oz. We shall follow Mr. Luckev's career with close in- terest. . Much excitement was aroused by a slight accident last night at the All-Shakespeare play, when in a temporary attack of extreme nerv- ousness, occasioned by the repeti- tion of certain Shakespearean lines, Mr. Harry J. Smith rushed from the stage, crying,- A dangling participle,-a d-d-d-d-dangling p- p--.U A reporter ascertained this morning that this is a not uncom- mon occurrence. Mr. Smith is somewhat recovered at present writing. We are interested to note that Art and Criticism are not dead in America. The recent publication of the annals of the Oberlin English Club brings to our attention a gen- uinely valuable contribution. The 312 THE LOOKOUT. annals are prepared in a delightful dialogue style which reminds us of Plato at his best. We quote: I was thinking, said Professor MacL-nn-n, very politely, what is Art anyway PM The intellectual persons about the table looked at one another and grinned. Well, it's not objective expres- sivity, cried Mr. Bates briskly. Plato says that Pater and Mat- thew Arnold and Bosanquet say that Lotze and Schopenhauer are de'm fools, remarked I-I-rv-y P-ck. Contrariwise, Fl-r-nc- D-v-s cried. I insist upon expressality and universitiveness. ' Nohow, shouted Instructor Smith. It's a milieu. Here Fl-r-nc- D-v-s ventured to interrupt. I won't have it express- a1ity. Yes, so do I, Professor Mac- L-nn-n remarked. But now, here's a question: 'What do you mean by Art ?' I LITERARY ci-IAT A REAL CONTRIBUTION. I-Ie who introduces into the liter- ary world a new book on Shake- speare, says Mr. Wager, should be very sure that he has something of a decided distinctive character to offer. Such can surely be said of W. I. Bedortha's recent study, Was Hamlet Insane?,' which we quote to some extent below. Miss Bedortha is fast becoming known as a successful impressionistic writ-- er. Her work is spicy and attrac- tive, though it does not yet give evidence of careful, sustained effort and her irritating inaccuracy in the use of pronouns detracts greatly from the dignity of her style. Miss Bedortha is chiefly known by herd widely read General Athletics, or, A Toast to Aunty, and by her 'lStanzas, a collective copy of which will soon appear. These stanzas are chiefly-valuable for their variety and spontaneity. As Miss .Bedortha becomes more experienced her verse will doubtless gain in strength, and losethe ex- travagance which is to be criticized in her present work. One could almost regret, however, even an artistic curb upon the rare enthu- siasm and naive simplicity of the following: ' From the left a prof. strode into the light, A Soph appeared from the gloom off to right, A pipe apiece, and an unvoiced damn, LITERARY CHAT. 313 Were lost in the night at Birming- ham. Many consider this bit her mas- terpiece, but most critics feel that there is a deeper beauty in the lines- Black were her eyes, her hair and lashes black- lllack the hat and jacket she did wear, Black were the looks, a blackened soul betrayed, And black, as black as coal tar, was the maid. ' The unity of this piece is especial- ly to be commended. Little need be said as to the Ham- let study, as its keen observance, and rare logic, tell of themselves what a scholarly mind is behind the writer's most fiippant remarks. The article has been criticised for its rather pronounced savor of Miss Buck, but a well informed reader will recognize at once the close fol-- lowing of the laws of Aristotle. Without further remark we would quote: Amyntas, grandfather of Alex- ander the Great, employed Nico- machus as his physician. Presum- ably Nicomachus' was not insane. Amyntas could hardly have em- ployed a crazy man to minister to his welfare and to his longevity. Now, Nieomachus being a doctor, one may venture to assert that he possessed sufficient discrimination to enable him to select a wife who was not insane either. Having now established a sane ancestry for Aris- totle, it remains only to show that Aristotle's own life upheld the Nicomachanian standard. He en- joyed money when he had it, he studied well, he married Qwhich is considered rationalj, he kept out of Alexanderls wars, he apologized for being impious, and ended this life when sixty-one years old, whether by poison or drowning or some other natural means, does not mat- ter. He had the good judgment to leave while in full possession of his powers, and equal to whatever he might have to encounter in the beyond. How does senility ever make a success of the next world? Aristotlels life and writings dis- played constant rationality, and he was not insane. And this rationality may enter into less wonderful lives. There is our own Alexander Dowie. He is devoting himself to a great work, that of collecting unbalanced peo- ple into Zion City before the final rush commences. There he has them safe and comfortable, himself the guardian who metes out to them judiciously the funds of the Zion City Banking Company, unassisted by the glittering orbs and schemes of Cassandra L. Chadwick-the reader will pardon so painful a ref- erenee. And yet our insanity advocates would suggest that, though in the midst of the misery which crowds upon him, Hamlet ought to carry on bright, suave, conventional conver- 3t4 'THE LooKoUT. sations. Some of these advocates would, I fancy, renounce, though regretfully, Hamlet's insanity, even if he should so vary the present scheme of the drama as respect- fully to abide Polonius' eavesdrop- ping, and Ophelia's complicity. To be sure, he might have used a little more conservatism toward Polonius and Ophelia. He might have writ- ten Ophelia a little note to this effect: Elsinore, Denmark. Miss Qphelia :- 'I am led to believe that you do not appreciate the value of true friendship. -You do not seem now the same person of whom I was once the lover. My photographs, the Danish popular songs, the Uni- versity pin,-dispose of as you like. Dance and stroll and talk eoquet- tishly with whom you will, I am done with it. Sincerely, Hamletf His life, his thoughts, are the constant rationality of a great mind. That he had versatility of expres- sion, and spoke in figures where a small man would have known no better expression than blasphemy, is something that the insanity ad- vocates do not seem to appreciate. Let the insanity advocates remem- ber that Hamlet is not responsible for the rantings and stage business of ambitious actorsg also that we all of us see ghosts at times, the less material, the more profound. The following poetic rendition of Hawthorne, which has recently ap- peared, is of value to all students of American literature. The writer withholds his name for the present: COLONEL PYNCHEON'S DEATH. The Colonel sits alone within the room, - A death of apoplexy is his doom. And as he .sits he moans and groans, He hears low whisperings-ghast- ly tones- The horrid crash of cracking bones! He slips-he falls-and now he owns The reason for these moans and groans. Tick! goes the watch, and the judge drops dead, The sins of his ancestors on his head. Downward he sinks-down, down, down deep, He follows the print of his ances- torls feet. A creepy cavern-a frightful fall- A mocking voice that screams out Maul - A fiendish whisper-a sickish laugh-- The rest is gone from his epitaphf' A COLLEGE BOOK. The Mastery of the German Literature, by A. M. Abbott, au- thor of The Latecomersf' while primarily a college text-book, has attracted so much attention in lit- erary circles that it deserves men- LITERARY CHAT. 315 tion here. The educational world, to use a German expression, pecu- liar to Miss Abbott herself, is in a state of Schwarmerei over this somewhat novel production. Its author is a young idealist, who i-n her zeal for proving her theory--a combined German-English effect- allows herself to disregard the usages of language in a way which ought to be criticized rather than admired. Miss Abbott is striking in her expression, but she is somewhat slangy, and is conspicuously lacking in dignity. She shows a pathetic tendency for such doubtful English as How long since P She is also somewhat repetitions. One notes that she is over fond of the expres- sion, Was erfahren wir in dieser Scene ? And she shows a senti- mental partiality for the word Zee- lenzustandf' Her Geben Sie die Idee in andern Worten grows a trifle monotonous, too, and her ja wohln loses its force by its extrava- gant devotion to italics. When all's said, however, the Hauptpunkte of the book are very fairly done, and for a beginner this is a creditable piece of work. As a matter of side interest, it is not inappropriate to remark that Miss Abbott's manu- script is the joy of her publishers, for its extreme legibility, a virtue which cannot be too highly recom- mended in these days of beautiful but indecipherable chirograp-hy. ALICE DURAND, THE WOMAN. While the works of Alice May Durand are rapidly passing from current to standard, many admiring readers are clamoring for facts as to the woman behind the fascinating tales which have within the past twenty-five years brought their au- thor to the most giddy pinnacle of fame. Such facts are hard to get, Miss Durand preferring to be known only through the medium of her pen. She repulses reporters with a zeal worthy of her own Mrs. Thomas O'Hooligan in The Salvation of Helena, and ignores all social invitations except those to balls, of which latter amusement she is said to be inordi- nately fond. Miss Durand is of about medium height, with a de- cided gait and brown hair. She wears glasses when on the street, and gives freely to the poor. She issomewhat eccentric in her habits, sometimes even sleeping in the pri- vate laboratory where she performs chemical experiments for her own amusement. I-Ier two most notice- able hobbies are low shoes and K'The Duchess. It would be a rare treat for the p-resent generation, could Miss Durand bring herself to allow her personality to come in touch with the living mass of today. To be sure, she is perhaps a little advanced in years for heavy social activities, but we could wish that her disposi- tion were not of such a forbidding nature that her thousands of ad- mirers fear to approach the portals of her domain. Yet even a sugges- tion to such an undisputed lion of letters, on the part of the public, seems rash. Let us think on this. 316 THE LOOKOUT. A TWENTIETH CENTURY POET. It is quite time that the literary world should awake to the fact that the long expected Twentieth Cen- tury Poet is not a myth, but with us in the flesh. No one who has read the verse of Anna Louise Strong will for a moment dispute her right to fame, and at the last sitting of The English Club, Wo- man's Board, and other important criterions, it has been acknowledged that Miss Strong's poetry is, With- out doubt, representative of the present century. The general pub- lic will perhaps be interested in a brief sketch of her life. Lack of space compels us to adopt the en- cyclopedic form here: Strong-Anna Louise, journalist and poet, b. July 12, 18- fdate un- certaiuj, in U. S. A. Educated in Ohio and Paris. Undergraduate career of unusual brilliancy, wrote during this period a collection of impassioned poems called The Crushg or, The Sentiment of a Dresser Scarf, this paved way for later fame. Her Oberlin Songs, also a work of some importance, appeared during Senior year. After completing college course studied and practiced law some years, con- tinuing to write for such period- icals as I-Ii-O-Hi. 1905 wrote Everyman, probably her master- piece. 19o6-7, trained nurse in N. Y. City. IQO8-IO, deaconess in Boston, wrote during this time Songs of Solitude and The Voice of the Automobile. 1910-11, agent for Inter Collegiate Positions. 1912-15, president of Bryn Mawr College. 1915, retired, giving up entire time to verse. The bulk of her poetry .has appeared since then, and is too familiar to need descrip- tion here. Miss Strong may be found at her residence, 78256 E. Elm st., Gberlin, or from 2 to 4 at her private office adjoining Dean's departments, Baldwin Cottage. NEW APPOINTMENTS DURING THE MONTH OF JUNE. Ed. of The Munsey, Ernest S.

Aknowledge of 'business methods is almost a necessity, no matter what profession may be selected. V The demand for thoroughly trained bookkeepers and stenographers - is much greater than the supply. Every one of our graduates is employed. We also have a number of calls each year for persons who are prepared to TEACH the Commercial subjects. If you wish to study shorthand, you must be careful to select a good system, lest you waste much time and money on a poor one. Mr. Frederic Irland, Official Reporter, U. S. House of Representa- tives, Washington, D. C., is considered the best all-round reporter in the U. S. Mr. Irland is a writer of the Graham system and says: H If Iwere fifteen years old again and wanted to be earning 525,000.00 a year in some great business by the time Iwas thirty, I would study to become a good amanuensis, and get into the Manager's office as STENOGRAPHER. There is no quicker, easier way to 'burglarize' success. If interested we would be pleased to send you a booklet which gives the names and addresses of all the official Court Reporters of thc United States, 887 in number. 327 of these reporters use the Graham system, which is taught in our school, 294 write the Pit- man systems, 25 the Eclectic, the remaining 241 represent all the other systems, of which there'are many.
